Chocolate Doughnuts

1/4 cup butter, 1 1/4 cups sugar, 2 eggs, 1 1/2 squares Walter Baker & Co.'s Premium No. 1 Chocolate, 1 cup sour milk, 4 cups flour, 1 teaspoonful soda, 1 teaspoonful cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoonful salt, 1 1/2 teaspoonfuls vanilla. Cream butter and add sugar gradually, while beating constantly; then add eggs well beaten, chocolate, melted, sour milk and flour mixed and sifted with soda, cinnamon and salt. Add vanilla and more flour, if necessary, to handle the mixture. Toss on a slightly floured board, knead slightly, and pat and roll to one-fourth inch in thickness. Shape with a doughnut cutter, first dipped in flour, fry in deep fat and drain on brown paper.
