Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

1 c Sugar
4 tb Water, cold
1 ea Egg white, beaten
1 ts Vanilla

Add the water to the sugar and boil until the syrup spins a thread.
Pour the hot syrup very slowly into the beaten white of egg, whipping
constantly. Flavor with vanilla and spread the icing on the cake. For
chocolate icing, add 2 Tbsp grated chocolate to the warm icing. To
tint icing: Lemon juice will whiten icing. The grated rind of an
orange will give a yellow color. Strawberry, raspberry or cranberry
juice will give a pink shade. Source: Pennsylvania Dutch Cook Book -
