Quince Dessert
4 quinces,
1½ cups sugar,
1/2 tea spoon cinnamon,
1 tea spoon grated clove,
Whipped cream
Wash, peel and cut quinces in half. Carve quinces out. Save 4 or 5 seeds. Place them in a pan. Mix sugar, cinnamon, clove and then sprinkle them over quince halves. Put seeds into the pan. Seeds give to this dessert a nice color. Cover the pan and bake them at 300F about 45 minutes. Let it cool and serve it with whipped cream.

It is for four servings.
