Egg Improves whipped Cream

Before whipping cream for the top Of
chocolate or coffee it is better to add the
white of an egg and tablespoonful of
powdered sugar. Then whip until stiff.
In default of the cream the whites Of egg,
with powdered sugar lightly busted in,
make the drinks much more tempting
than when served plain. Whip very stifl
in either case and keep on ice till wanted,
which should be very soon after being pre-
