For about two quarts and a half of cream use a
pint and a half of milk, a quart of thin cream, two cupfuls of sugar,
two ounces of Walter Baker & Co.'s Premium No. 1 Chocolate, two
eggs, and two heaping tablespoonfuls of flour.
Put the milk on to boil in a double-boiler. Put the
flour and one cupful of the sugar in a bowl; add the eggs, and beat the
mixture until light.
Stir this into the boiling milk, and cook for twenty
minutes, stirring often.
Scrape the chocolate, and put it in a small saucepan.
Add four tablespoonfuls of sugar (which should be taken from the second
cupful) and two tablespoonfuls of hot water. Stir over a hot fire until
smooth and glossy. Add this to the cooking mixture.
When the preparation has cooked for twenty
minutes, take it from the fire and add the remainder of the sugar and
the cream, which should be gradually beaten into the hot mixture. Set
away to cool, and when cold, freeze.
