Marshmallow Frosting image

I recently stumbled across a really yummy frosting for cakes. It works especially well on cupcakes. If you pipe it on, it stands up beautifully - much like soft serve ice-cream! And the taste... well it tastes just like gooey soft marshmallow fluff!

Time 10m

Yield 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 large egg whites
1 cup ordinary white sugar or 1 cup brown sugar
1 pinch salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Place all ingredients except the vanilla essence into a bowl which you can place over a pot of simmering water.
  • {You could use a double boiler here instead}.
  • Whisk the egg white mixture constantly over simmering water until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is hot to the touch. {It takes around 5 minutes}.
  • Pour the mixture into a bigger bowl and beat with an electric mixer for 3 minutes. {Add the vanilla while beating}. After 3 minutes, the mixture will be lovely and fluffy.
  • {I used my Kitchen Aid food mixer}.
  • I love using disposable piping bags - {or you could even use a plastic bag} without a nozzle, I simply piped straight out the end of the piping bag directly onto the cupcakes.
