Cook safely
Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

- To make one quart of chocolate, put into a saucepan four rounding teaspoons of grated chocolate.
- Add a half pint of boiling water, stirring all the white, until the mixture reaches boiling point.
- Boil just a moment.
- Add one and one-half pints of milk, and three rounding tablespoons of sugar, and stir constantly until the milk is very hot.
- Take from the fire, turn into a heated chocolate pot and serve with whipped cream.
- In the absence of whipped cream which is not always available, a marshmallow is placed in each cup and the chocolate poured around it.
- Plain cream is passed in a pitcher.
- The chocolate is very often made with water omitting the milk entirely.
