Lord Baltimore Frosting
Ingredients
- 2 egg whites

- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/4 teaspoons vanilla
- 1/4 cup chopped maraschino or candied cherries
- 1/4 cup chopped pecans

Directions
- Combine egg whites, Karo syrup, sugar and salt in top of double boiler. Place over rapidly boiling water and cook, beating constantly with rotary beater until frosting stands in peaks. Remove from heat. Add flavoring, beating in well. Cool slightly.
