Chocolate Cakes Recipe
Whisk a packet of Nelson's Albumen with three teaspoonfuls of cold water
to the strongest possible froth, mix in half-a-pound of finely sifted
sugar, two teaspoonfuls of Schweitzer's Cocoatina, and six drops of
Nelson's Essence of Vanilla; sift paper thickly with sugar, and drop
small teaspoonfuls of the mixture at equal distances on it, allowing
space for the cakes to spread a little. Bake for ten minutes in a
moderate oven.
COCOA-NUT ROCK.
Boil half-a-pound of loaf sugar in a gill of water until it is beginning
to return again to sugar, when cool add a packet of Nelson's Albumen
whisked to a strong froth with three teaspoonfuls of water, and stir in
a quarter of a pound of Edwards' Desiccated Cokernut. Spread the
mixture, not more than an inch thick, in a greased pudding-tin, and
place in a cool oven to dry. When done cut in neat squares, and keep in
tins in a cool, dry place.
