WASHINGTON PIE, CHOCOLATE FILLING.

Make a plain cup cake, and bake in two layers. For the filling, beat the yolks of two eggs till light, and add one half cupful of sugar; stir this into one half cupful of milk; melt two ounces of chocolate and stir into the milk; put on stove, and cook till it thickens; beat till cool, flavor with vanilla and spread on the cake between layers and sprinkle confectioners’ sugar on top. Plain Washington pie has simply a dressing of whipped cream, sweetened, and flavored with vanilla, between the layers.
