Uncooked Chocolate Orange Cream Wafers

Ingredients

• 1/4 pound bitter chocolate
• 1 1/4 cups confectioners' sugar
• 3/4 cup finely cut crystallized orange peel
• 1/4 pound sweet chocolate

Instructions

1. Melt the bitter chocolate in a double boiler and spread with a knife on heavy waxed paper on which has been drawn an oblong, six inches by twelve inches. To the confectioners' sugar add one teaspoon grated orange peel, and two tablespoons juice (enough to moisten the sugar so that it will spread without running). Add the crystallized orange peel and when the oblong of chocolate is hard spread on it the orange mixture as evenly as possible. Melt the sweet chocolate and spread on another sheet of waxed paper, making an oblong the same size as the first. Turn the first sheet face down on this melted chocolate and press with the hand over the wrong side of the paper. When the chocolate is hard pull off the papers and cut the candy in squares to serve as a confection. This is really a very simple process, and the wafers are delicious, something one cannot buy at a candy shop.
