This maple cream makes a delicious spread--A memorable seasonal treat!
Ingredients
- 1 envelope unflavored gelatin
- 2 ¼ cups milk
- ¼ tsp. salt
- 3 eggs, separated
- ¾ cups maple syrup

Preparation
Soften gelatin in milk in the top part of a double boiler. Place over hot water and heat to scalding. Beat together salt and egg yolks; stir in syrup, then add to milk. Cook over simmering water, stirring until mixture just begins to thicken. (Do not overcook; the mixture won’t be very thick.) Remove from heat and cool; add vanilla.
