Ingredients

Method

  1. Grate some Sanitas chocolate, place in a saucepan, and to each two ounces allow one cup of cold water.
  2. Let it stand until the chocolate is soft, place over the fire, and when it boils, cook one minute.
  3. Work it briskly with an egg beater, then serve at once, adding at the last moment a tablespoonful of whipped cream to each cup.
  4. It is considered an improvement by some to use two-thirds chocolate and one-third malted nuts.
  5. Other chocolate is not recommended, as it contains an injurious alkaloid, which in the Sanitas brand is removed by a special process.
