- 1 cup of milk,
- 2 eggs (yolks),
- 2 tablespoonfuls of flour,
- Pinch of salt,
- 4 teaspoonfuls of Baker's Cocoa,
- 3 tablespoonfuls of sugar,
- ½ a teaspoonful of vanilla.
Put the milk in the upper part of the double-boiler, and heat. Mix flour
and cocoa together and soften in a little cold milk; mix until free
from lumps. When the milk is hot, add the flour, and cook, stirring
often, eight or ten minutes. Beat yolks of eggs lightly; add sugar and
salt, and mix well. When mixture in double-boiler has cooked
sufficiently, strain it over the mixture in the bowl. Put back in
double-boiler and allow it to cook one or two minutes (stirring
constantly), just enough to slightly thicken the eggs. Remove from the
stove, and when cool add vanilla and put in the serving-dish. Cover with
a meringue. Place dish on a board, put in the oven with the door open,
and allow it to remain there for ten or fifteen minutes, and when the
meringue will not stick to the fingers, close the door and let it brown
slightly. This pudding can be eaten warm or cold, but is much better
cold. This will serve four persons generously.
