Ingredients

White of 1 egg
2 tsp. cold water
1/2 tsp. vanilla
3/4 C. powdered sugar

Cooking Instructions

Beat the egg white until stiff. Then add the water and sugar and beat thoroughly. Then add the vanilla. If the icing is not thick enough to spread, more sugar may be added. A spatula is good to use in spreading. This same icing is frequently used on sponge cakes, but usually with the substitution of one-half Tbls. of lemon or orange juice or sometimes more for the vanilla and with the addition of the grated rind of half a lemon or orange.
