STRAWBERRY SMOW ^ Mans,l<Uumi
The "snows" are quick desserts to make, and they are relatively low in
calories. Serve them immediately after making them, or freeze them to
make a very nice sherbet.

 

Soften the gelatin in the water.
Heat 1 cup of the crushed strawberries to the boiling point, and stir in the gelatin.
Chill until syrupy.
Beat the egg whites until stiff, adding the sugar to them gradually.
Fold the egg-white mixture into the cooled strawberry gelatin mixture.
Fold in the remaining  cup crushed strawberries.
Fold in the whipped cream and serve immediately, garnished with the whole strawberries.
