BAKED CHOCOLATE CUSTARD

Other Recipes

For five small custards use one pint of milk, two eggs, one ounce of Walter Baker & Co.'s Premium No.1 Chocolate, one-fourth of a teaspoonful of salt, and a piece of stick cinnamon about an inch long.

Put the cinnamon and milk in the double-boiler, place on the fire and cook for ten minutes. Shave the chocolate, and put it in a small pan with three tablespoonfuls of sugar and one of boiling water.

Stir this over a hot fire until smooth and glossy, and then stir it into the hot milk, after which take the liquid mixture from the fire and cool.

Beat together with a spoon the eggs, salt and two tablespoonfuls of the sugar.
Add the cooled milk and strain.
Pour the mixture into the cups, which place in a deep pan.

Pour into the pan enough tepid water to come nearly to the top of the cups. Bake in a moderate oven until firm in the center.
It will take about half an hour.

Test by running a knife through the center.
If the custard is milky, it is not done. Serve very cold.
