THE MAMA'S COOK BOOK - Mrs. Fred Harvey


Recipe Introduction


The MAMA'S COOK BOOK was prepared by the Pre-School Group of the Louisville (Georgia) Parent Teacher Association many years ago when most women knew the ins and outs of cooking. Therefore part of the directions are sometimes left out.



List of Ingredients




2 egg whites
1 1/2 cup sugar
dash salt
5 tbsp. water
2 tsp. light corn syrup
1 tsp. vanilla

Recipe



With rotary beater, beat egg white, sugar, salt, water and corn syrup in top part of double boiler until mixed.

Place over boiling water and continue beating about seven minutes or until frosting thickens and stands in peaks. Remove from boiling water, add flavoring and beat until stiff enough to spread. Makes frosting for tops and sides of two 9" layers.
