Chocolate Biscuit

Four ounces flour, one ounce melted butter, four ounces fine sugar, one ounce grated chocolate, one teaspoon vanilla essence and three eggs. Place the sugar, vanilla and eggs in a copper basin and sharply whisk up for eight minutes, then add the chocolate and flour, gently mix for one minute with a skimmer; add the butter, mix again for a minute. Then drop the preparation into a lightly buttered small pastry pan and bake in a slack oven for ten minutes. Remove, sprinkle two tablespoons fine sugar over. Cut the cake into six equal pieces and serve on a dish with a folded napkin.
