Mixture for the Cakes

One cup grated chocolate, one cup milk, one teaspoon corn starch, dissolved in it; yolk of one egg, one cup sugar, boil until thick; put between the cakes and around them, letting the frosting extend about one inch on the cake, then make a frosting of the white of one egg for the center of the cake. This makes a handsome looking and a good cake.
