...Fluffy White Icing in it? I have lost the page with my favourite recipe in it. It is in an older edition of the red checkered Better Homes and Gardens cook book. The recipe is called either Fluffy White Frosting or Fluffy White Icing. Does anyone have it?
 
Fluffy white frosting:

Combine 1 cup granulated sugar , 1/3 cup water , 1/4 teaspoon of cream of tartar , and a dash of salt in saucepan. Bring to a boiling stirring till sugar dissolves. Very slowly add sugar syrup to 2 unbeaten egg whites in mixing bowl , beating constantly with electric mixer till stiff peaks form, about 7 minutes. Beat in 1 teaspoon vanilla. Frosts tops and sides of 2 8-or9- inch pans. /or one tube cake.
 
There is a recipe for creamy white frosting on page 167 of the 14th edition.

In a medium saucepan whisk 1 cup milk into 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour. Cook and stir over medium heat until thickened and bubbly. Reduce heat; cook and stir for 2 minutes more. Cover surface with plastic wrap. Cool to room temperature (do not stir). In a medium mixing bowl beat 1 cup softened butter, 1 cup sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla with electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy. Add cooled milk mixture to butter mixture, 1/4 cup at a time, beating on low speed after each addition until smooth.
