Make Your Own
Ghristmas Chocolates

It's far easier than yeu've
ever imagined to make your own
Christmas chocolates. Here's a
dasic recipe and a few hints to
help you on your way on this
exciting Yuletide project,

Combine thoroughly three
pounds of icing sugar, one-quar-
ter pound of butter, one tin of
aweetened condensed milk, and
four tablespoons of corn or maple
syrup. This is the filling, and

Melt together two packages

of semi-sweet chocolate and half| |

a bar of paraffin, Melt these
slowly over a low heat, stirring
constantly to prevent burning,
Using a fine-pointed darning
needle, dip each filling into the
hot chocolate, then place on wax
paper. Work quickly, as the hot
chocolate will soften the filling a
bit. Have a toothpick handy to
dip into the chocolate and fill
in the'tiny hole left by the darn.
ing necdle, Let the chocolates cool
and harden — and they're ready
to eat,

Here's a tip, When combin-
ing the flavorings with the filling,
try to keep the mixture as dry
as possible. Use a small quantity | ;

of a ra-

customs have changed through
the years, The English mince pie,

In the villages of France,
Christmas Eve is ly cele-
brated with a holiday supper, fol-
lowed by the ceremony of burn-
ing the Yule log. At midnight
church bells peal out a welcome,
and the people go through the
streets to the church, each car-
rying a lighted candle. After the
church service they hurry home
to a feast, which is so merry that
it often lasts through: the night.
Nor are the children forgotten.
Their. weoden shoes or slippers
are filled with sweets.

and food was scarce, Christmas

be a very frugal meal, and instead |
of making merry the men worked
on the cabins. .

For that matter, the Pilgrims
and the Puritans, who came over
a little later, did not approve of

and were fined 5 shillings if they
