Lost
Recipes
A
favorite hobby of mine is to collect historic and out of print
pastry cookbooks. From my collection, here is another one which is described in the Old School Pastry Blog:
This
recipe is from 'The Royal Baker and Pastry Cook: A Manual of Practical Receipts for Home Baking and Cooking' by the Royal Baking Powder Company.
Little Chocolate Cakes
The orginal recipe:
2 tablespoons butter, 1 cup sugar, 1/2 cup water, 1 1/2 cups flour, pinch salt, 1 teaspoon Royal Baking Powder, 2 eggs, 4 tablespoons grated chocolate melted over hot water, 1 teaspoon extract vanilla.
Procedure:
Put together as for cake with butter; bake in patty-pans in moderate oven.
Read here for an updated and revised version, using white chocolate chips.
