CHOCOLATE FROSTING

• 1 square of Baker's Chocolate,
• Pinch of salt,
• 5 tablespoonfuls of boiling water,
• 1 teaspoonful of vanilla,
• About three cups of sifted confectioners' sugar.

Melt chocolate in bowl over tea-kettle, add water, salt and vanilla, and when smooth add the sugar, and heat until very glossy. Make the frosting stiff enough to spread without using a wet knife. It will keep indefinitely.
