Ingredients
- one quart of good new orleans molasses until it hardens
- four ounces of chocolate finely
Directions
Boil one quart of good New Orleans molasses until it hardens, when tested by cooling a little of it in water as before described. Just before removal from the fire, add four ounces of chocolate finely and uniformly grated. Pour a thin layer into tin trays slightly greased, and when the surface of the candy has become hardened a little, mark with a knife into squares. These may be flavored, but the natural flavor of the choco- late and molasses is generally preferred without addition.
