2-1/2 c. sugar
3/4 c. hot water
1/4 tsp. cream of tartar
1 egg white
Boil the sugar, water, and cream of tartar until the sirup threads. Beat
the egg white until stiff, add the sirup slowly so as not to cook the
egg, and beat constantly until thick enough to spread on the cake
without running. This may be used for icing, as well as filling.
