Put one ounce of Walter Baker & Co.'s Chocolate and one tablespoonful of
butter in a cup, and set this in a pan of boiling water. Beat to a cream
half a cupful of butter and one cupful of sugar. Gradually beat in half
a cupful of milk. Now add the whites of six eggs beaten to a stiff
froth, one teaspoonful of vanilla, and a cupful and a half of sifted
flour, in which is mixed one teaspoonful of baking powder. Put about
one-third of this mixture into another bowl, and stir the melted butter
and chocolate into it. Drop the white-and-brown mixture in spoonfuls
into a well buttered deep cake pan, and bake in a moderate oven for
about forty-five minutes; or, the cake can be baked in a sheet and iced
with a chocolate or white icing.
