INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 3 cups sifted confectioners' sugar
  • 1 egg white
  • 1 tablespoon cream
  • 3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Add remaining sugar, alternately with egg white, then with cream, beating after each addition until smooth. Stir in vanilla and salt. Divide into different bowls if you wish to make different colours, and tint delicately with colouring. Keep frosting covered to avoid crusting.
