From Mrs. J. H. Barnard

Three cupfuls brown sugar, 1 cupful granulated sugar, 1 cupful milk, piece of butter size of walnut, 2 even tablespoonfuls of chocolate or breakfast cocoa, juice of half a lemon; stir well and boil for about 10 minutes. Be very careful that it does not burn. The stirring is quite important. When it will form a soft ball when dropped in cold water, remove from fire and stir or beat until it begins to thicken; add a tablespoon-ful of vanilla and pour into buttered tins. When cool cut in squares and when cold pack in tin box.
