Breakfast Cocoa
Ingredients
- 1½ tablespoons prepared cocoa
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 cups boiling water
- 2 cups milk
- Few grains salt
Steps
- Scald milk. Mix cocoa, sugar, and salt, dilute with one-half cup boiling water to make smooth paste, add remaining water, and boil one minute; turn into scalded milk and beat two minutes, using Dover egg-beater, when froth will form, preventing scum, which is so unsightly; this is known as milling.
