Párizsi Krém (Parisian Cream)

Párizsi Krém (Parisian Cream)

I have no idea when Mother cut this recipe out of a Hungarian language periodical except that it would have to have been no earlier than 1957 & would have been in the USA. This was one of the dishes submitted to a "Race for the Golden Spoon," a cooking contest for area restaurants sponsored by the Central Catering Co. in Hungary. I've tried to make the recipe translation as accurate as possible.

I'm not sure I understand the name of the dish. Today, a "Párizsi Krém" is considered to be a ganache, not a parfait-type pudding.
