Chocolate Arabics Recipe ingredients

To prepare this Chocolate Arabics Recipe, first purchase the desired number of gum drops-either the jelly sort or "jaw- breakers"-and give them a coat of chocolate. To every ounce of unsweetened chocolate, melted, add two tablespoons of milk, one or two tablespoons of sugar and the least bit of butter. Stir over the fire till smooth and, while it is warm, dip the drop into it with a fork or candy wire and place on a piece of marble. If the chocolate becomes too stiff, thin cautiously with sugar syrup. The covering entirely changes the character of the gum drops, greatly improving their flavor.
