Chocolate

Ingredients

• 2 squares chocolate
• 3 cupfuls milk
• 1 cupful boiling water
• 1/4 teaspoonful salt
• 1/3 cupful sugar
• 1/2 teaspoonful vanilla

Instructions

Cut the chocolate into bits and put it in a pan; add the boiling water. Stir and cook until it reaches the boiling point and is perfectly smooth. Heat the milk in a double boiler. Then gradually add the hot milk to the chocolate mixture, add the sugar, and heat all in a double boiler. Add salt and vanilla, if desired. If there is a scum over the beverage, beat well. Serve hot.

Whipped cream or marshmallows are often served with chocolate. The use of whipped cream with chocolate, however, makes the beverage excessively rich in fat.
