This is a very good frosting. You may flavor it with any flavoring extract to suit your needs. Ingredients:
3 cups white sugar |
1 cup water |
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar |
3 egg whites |
1 pinch salt |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
Directions:
1. Combine sugar, water, and cream of tartar in a saucepan. Cook until candy thermometer reaches 238 degrees F (115 degrees C), or until syrup spins a long thread when dripped from a spoon.
2. Beat egg whites until stiff. Pour a thin, slow stream of the syrup into egg whites, beating constantly until frosting stands in peaks. Stir in salt and vanilla to taste.
