Alpine Baskets

(Switzerland.) Make a mixture of whites of eggs and sugar as used for kisses and meringues, drop in large spoonfuls on buttered paper, set on a board and bake until yellow. If the spoonfuls have been given the right shape,--a pastry bag is the best thing to use,--the baskets, which must be scooped out of any soft part in the centre, will be a good shape. Stand them on end, let them dry, and fill with whipped cream, sweetened and flavored with a little cordial or vanilla. Drop small red strawberries over the tops.
