Boiled Frosting

|
DIRECTIONS
- Put the sugar in a saucepan, and pour the boiling water over it.
- Place the saucepan over a slow fire, and stir until the sugar is melted; then stop stirring and allow the mixture to boil slowly until it "threads" when dropped from the tip of a spoon.
- Beat the egg-white, and then slowly pour the boiled sugar and water over it, stirring all the time.
- Add the flavoring, and beat until stiff enough to spread on the cake.
Chocolate Frosting

DIRECTIONS
- Melt the butter and chocolate together in a double-boiler.
- Sift the powdered sugar, and add the sugar and cream, alternately and a little at a time, to the melted butter and chocolate, stirring constantly.
