Chocolate Rocks

By: Adrian Kennelly

5 ozs. sweet chocolate
1/2 pint (1 cup) thick cream
2 tablespoonfuls hot sugar syrup
1 teaspoonful vanilla extract
1 oz. unsweetened chocolate
1/2 teaspoonful almond extract
1 lb. sweet grated chocolate
1/2 oz. melted cocoa-butter
1/2 teaspoonful rose extract

Melt the grated chocolate over hot water to a smooth paste. Remove it from the hot water, beat for a few minutes, adding gradually the rose extract and the melted cocoa-butter. Stir occasionally until quite cold; then rub through a wire sieve on white paper underneath.

Put the sweet chocolate and the unsweetened chocolate into a saucepan, and melt the mixture to a smooth paste; then add the cream, hot syrup, the extracts, and stir over the fire until well mixed. Remove from the fire, and beat until the mixture becomes cold and a lighter color. Mold it into round centers; then roll them in the sieved chocolate.

Serve in paper cases.
