Brrrr....
We've had a bit of a cold snap in the part of my Munsonville world, and I'm wondering if I can persuade Rebekah to prepare some of this for me (and carry it up the ladder to my attic office, too).
It's interesting variation on our traditional hot chocolate beverages. Although this recipe is featured in the Simons Mansion section of Memories in the Kitchen: Bites and Nibbles from "Bryony," this first appeared in Miss Beecher’s domestic receiptbook: designed as a supplement to her Treatise on domestic economy.
2 squares chocolate
1 stick cinnamon

Spiced Chocolate
1 quart milk
2 squares chocolate
1 stick cinnamon
A little nutmeg
Rich cream (optional)
Grate the chocolate. Put the cinnamon stick in the milk and
then boil the milk, reserving a little cold milk to mix the chocolate, which
must be perfectly smooth to a thin paste. When the milk boils, stir in the
chocolate, and let it boil up quickly. Pour into a pitcher and grate on the
nutmeg. Rich cream added to the milk will improve it.
