Directions
Add chocolate to ¾ cup milk and heat in a double boiler.
Soak the gelatin in the remaining milk five minutes.
When the chocolate is melted, beat with a rotary egg beater until blended.
Add gelatin, sugar, and salt, and stir until the gelatin is dissolved.
Cool. Add the cream and vanilla.
Chill until cold and syrupy.
Place in a bowl of cracked ice or ice water and whip with a rotary egg beater until fluffy and thick like whipped cream.
Turn out into individual molds or one large mold, or pile lightly in sherbet glasses.
Chill only until firm; them unmold and keep in refrigerator until served.
Garnish with whipped cream.
Sprinkle with chopped blanched almonds, or grate chocolate over the top, if desired.
