Time 10m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/3 cup water
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon (or 1 tablespoon white corn syrup) cream of tartar
1 1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 egg whites
1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Place sugar, cream of tartar or corn syrup, salt, water and egg whites into a mixing bowl and beat for 1 minute with a handheld electric mixer.
  • Using the double boiler method, place the bowl over the top of rapidly boiling water, making sure that boiling water does not touch the bottom of the top bowl. (If this happens, it could cause your frosting to become grainy.) Beat constantly on high speed with electric mixer for 7 minutes. Remove the bowl from the boiler and gently stir in vanilla with a spatula.

Time 20m

Yield Makes about 7 cups (enough to frost one 8-inch layer cake)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 3/4 cups sugar
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
6 large egg whites, room temperature
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Heat 1 1/2 cups sugar, the water, and corn syrup in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until sugar dissolves. Raise heat to medium-high, and bring to a boil. Cook, washing down sides of pan with a wet pastry brush to prevent sugar crystals from forming, until syrup reaches 230 degrees on a candy thermometer. Once syrup reaches 230 degrees, remove from heat immediately.
  • Meanwhile, with a mixer on medium speed, whisk egg whites to soft peaks. Whisk in remaining 1/4 cup sugar. Reduce speed to medium-low, and pour syrup into egg whites in a slow, steady stream down the side of the bowl. Raise speed to medium-high, and whisk for 6 minutes. Add vanilla; whisk until soft peaks form, about 1 minute. Use immediately.
