Snow Drops
From The Modern Priscilla, December, 1915
3 cups powdered sugar
1 cup chopped nut meats
Whites of 2 eggs
1 teaspoon lemon extract
Add 1 cup of boiling water to the sugar, stir until sugar is dissolved, but no longer.
Place over burner and cook until it spins a thread when a little is poured from a spoon. Remove from the fire and after it has cooled a minute or two, add gradually to the stiffly beaten whites of the eggs.
Continue to beat until the mass is soft and creamy, yet of sufficient consistency to stand alone without spreading.
Add extract and nuts, chopped rather coarsely. Drop a spoonful at a time on buttered paper.
