Prep Time: 15 Minutes
Cook Time: 0 Minutes
Ready In: 15 Minutes
Servings: 3
Ingredients:
1 (1-lb) box confectioners sugar
4 teaspoons powdered egg whites (not reconstituted) such as just whites
1/3 cup water
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla
Directions:
1. Beat together all ingredients in a large bowl with an electric mixer at medium speed until just combined, about 1 minute.
2. Increase speed to high and continueto beat icing, occasionally scraping down side of bowl with a rubber spatula, until it holds stiff peaks, about 3 minutes in a standing mixer or 10 with a handheld. If not using icing immediately, cover with plastic wrap and a dampened kitchen towel.
3. Cooks' note: If you plan to spread cookies with icing (rather than pipe), stir in more water, 1 teaspoon at a time, to thin to desired consistency.
