Ingredients:
3 level tablespoonfuls of granulated gelatine,
1/2 a cup of cold water,
2 cups of sugar,
2/3 a cup of cold water,
1 teaspoonful of ground cinnamon,
2 squares of Baker's Chocolate,
1 teaspoonful of vanilla extract,
1 cup of French candied fruit, cherries, angelica, citron, etc., chopped fine.

Directions:
Let the gelatine stand in the half cup of cold water until it has taken up all
of the water. Stir the sugar and the two−thirds a cup of cold water over the
fire until the sugar is dissolved and the syrup is boiling, then add the
gelatine and let cook twenty minutes; add the cinnamon, the chocolate,
melted over hot water, and beat all together, then add the vanilla and the
fruit; let stand in a cool place for a time, then when it thickens a little turn
into an unbuttered bread pan and set aside until the next day. To unmold
separate the paste from the pan−−at the edge−−with a sharp−pointed knife.
Sift confectioner's sugar over the top, then with the tips of the fingers
gently pull the paste from the pan to a board dredged with confectioner's
sugar; cut into strips, then into small squares. Roll each square in
confectioner's sugar. In cutting keep sugar between the knife and the paste.
