1 env. Knox gelatin
4 tbsp. sugar
1/4 tsp. salt
2 c. milk
1 egg yolk
1 tsp. vanilla
1 egg white, beaten to soft peaks

Combine gelatin, sugar, and salt in saucepan. Add milk and egg yolk. Stir to blend. Heat over medium fire until gelatin dissolves, stirring constantly, about 2 or 3 minutes. Do not boil. Cool slightly; add vanilla and fold in egg whites. Turn into sherbet glasses and chill. A drop of red food coloring makes this a pretty dessert to serve at showers or birthday parties.
