Fruit Filling Recipe ingredients

• 1 cup mixed fruits (raisins, figs, dates, prunes), chopped
• 2 cups sugar
• ¾ cup water
• 2 egg whites, beaten stiff

To prepare this Fruit Filling Recipe, first boil sugar and water to 217 degrees F. Put your pan containing the dissolved sugar and water (syrup) on a hot fire and wait until it boils.

Take, with a spoon, a little of the syrup and drop slowly in cold water.

When the sugar drops out from the spoon into threads, it is ready. Pour the hot syrup gradually into the beaten whites of egg, beating all the time until the filling is smooth and firm. Let cool off, add the chopped fruits, and spread between the layers of cake.
