      CHOCOLATE DROPS
Miss Kate Alexander

  2 pounds of powdered sugar,

  Whites of 2 eggs,

  1/3 cup of sugar,

  1 tablespoonful of vanilla,

  1 1/2 pounds of grated pecans.

Beat the whites of 2 eggs. Sift the sugar; then pour gradually into the eggs,
stirring rapidly. Put in the vanilla; then the grated nuts; then pour in the
cream. Add the rest of the sugar until it can be worked as dough; then roll out
in any shape, and put on a dish to cool.

Take 3/4 cake of chocolate (melted); then drop them in, taking out with a
toothpick on either side. Place them on buttered paper; then put a pecan on top.
Set out to cool; then put them on a dish.

      COCOANUT CANDY

  1 cocoanut, grated,

  3 cups brown sugar.

Cover the sugar with water and cook till brittle. Then pour over the cocoanut,
which has been sprinkled on either slab or dish.

When cold, break in small pieces.
