Chocolate. ✠

• 6 tablespoonfuls grated chocolate to each pint of water.
• As much milk as you have water.
• Sweeten to taste.

Put on the water boiling hot. Rub the chocolate smooth in a little cold water, and stir into the boiling water. Boil twenty minutes; add the milk and boil ten minutes more, stirring frequently. You can sweeten upon the fire or in the cups.
