*Clever Judy Frosting Found by Colleen and sent to the Old Recipe Detective Blog from: http://www.heritagerecipes.com/cake-recipes/clever-judy-frosting.htm *
The Request: "Many years ago I used to make Clever Judy Frosting with my Grandmother - it was almost a whipped mocha consistency. The thing I remember most is that we would have to spell one another beating the frosting in a bowl over a bowl of ice until it set. The recipe is long gone. Hopefully you will be familiar with it. I would love to have it. Many thanks. Sharon" *Clever Judy Frosting * 2 squares chocolate 1 egg 1 tbsp. butter 1/4 cup cream 1 cup powdered sugar 1 tsp. vanilla Melt chocolate and butter in top of double-boiler. Cool and add powdered sugar, egg and cream. Beat until thick enough to spread and mix in vanilla. *Clever Judy Mocha Frosting** 1 cup powdered sugar 1 egg, unbeaten ¼ cup strong coffee ½ tsp. vanilla 3 squares Baker's Unsweetened Chocolate, melted but cooled slightly as not to cook the egg 1 T. softened butter Combine the ingredients in the above order, beating on medium speed until blended. Place the bowl in a pan of cracked ice or ice water and continue beating until the right consistency to spread (about 3 minutes). *Editor's Note: While searching for another recipe, I found this recipe in a little pamphlet, published in 1943. In those days they were less concerned about eggs and salmonella.
