Reserve one gill of milk from a quart, and put the remainder
on the fire in a double-boiler. Mix three table spoons of
cornstarch with the cold milk.
Beat two eggs with half a cupful of powdered sugar and half
a tea spoon of salt. Add this to the cornstarch and milk, and
stir into the boiling milk, beating well for a minute.
Shave fine two ounces of Cooking Chocolate, and put it
into a small pan with four table spoons of sugar and
two of boiling water.
Stir over a hot fire until smooth and glossy; then beat
into the hot pudding. Cook the pudding in all ten
minutes, counting from the time the eggs and
cornstarch are added. Serve cold with powdered
sugar and cream.
This pudding can be poured while hot into little cups
which have been rinsed in cold water. At serving time
turn out on a flat dish, making a circle, and fill the
center of the dish with whipped cream flavored with
sugar and vanilla.
The eggs may be omitted, in which case use one more table
spoons of cornstarch.
