Snow Icing

This is a wonderful, gooey, marshmallowy icing that tops the Whipped Cream Cake. This one is a little messy and might help if there are 2 people in the kitchen to prepare it. I did it by myself and everything, including myself ended up covered in the syrup. You'll love licking the beaters and spatulas after making this!

Snow Icing

2 egg whites
1/4 tsp. cream of tartar
pinch salt
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup white corn syrup
1 tsp. vanilla

Bring sugar and corn syrup to a boil - cook over medium heat until sugar dissolved. Beat egg whites with salt and cream of tartar until they stand in soft peaks. Add syrup mixture in a thin stream, beating continuously. Add vanilla, beat until of spreading consistency.

Digging Through the Box

There is a box in one of my kitchen cabinets that is full of recipes that I want to try. Some are torn from magazines, some are ones that I've handwritten and others are what I call lost and found. I have collected recipes for a long time and often come across old ones in cookbooks that I purchased at a garage sale or thrift shop. Sometimes I find handwritten recipes tucked into the pages or better yet, come across full recipe boxes. Sometimes there are old newspaper clippings hidden in the books and recipe boxes with wonderful recipes that need to be shared. I will try to prepare some of these and others I will share as written.
