I 1/2 squares Baker's chocolate 3 tablespoons sugar Few grains salt
1 cup boiling water 3 cups milk
Scald milk, melt chocolate in saucepan placed over hot water, add sugar, salt, and gradually boiling water; when smooth place on range and boil one minute; add to scalded milk in double boiler and cook for several minutes. Beat with Dover egg-beater just before serving and serve with whipped cream in chocolate cups. 1 1/2 ounces vanilla chocolate may be substituted for Baker's chocolate, and, being sweetened, requires less sugar. 3 tablespoons cocoa may be used instead of chocolate. When cocoa is used, it should be boiled with a little water for three minutes before adding it to the milk. One yolk of egg may be added to the cooked chocolate and sugar after cooling it, and before the milk is added.
Mix equal parts of coffee and cold chocolate. Sweeten with maple syrup and serve with whipped cream. A spoonful of vanilla ice-cream may be added to each glass instead of the whipped cream if preferred.
