Fannie Farmer's Breakfast Cocoa (1918)

1 1/2 tablespoons prepared cocoa
2 cups boiling water
2 tablespoons sugar
2 cups milk
Few grains salt

Scald milk. Mix cocoa, sugar, and salt, dilute with one half cup boiling
water to make smooth paste, add remaining water, and boil five minutes;
turn into scalded milk and beat two minutes, using egg beater, when froth
will form, preventing scum, which is so unsightly; this is known as
milling.
