From Mrs. Brockway
One-quarter pound Baker's chocolate, 1 cupful molasses, 1 cupful sugar, 1 cupful milk, 1 teaspoonful flour, 1 teaspoonful butter. Place sugar, molasses and milk in a saucepan over the fire and when warm add the grated chocolate and boil 15 minutes. Then add flour and butter and boil 1/2 of an hour longer, or until thick. Pour into tin pans 1/4 inch thick. When partly cold mark off into squares.
