This fluffy, egg-white frosting is made by combining whipped egg whites with hot sugar syrup until meringue-like. Works well on almost any type of cake.
Ingredients
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1/3 cup water
- ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
- 2 egg whites
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Stir sugar, water, and cream of tartar together in a saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat until sugar is dissolved and syrup is bubbly.
Step 2
Beat egg whites and vanilla in a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl until foamy. Gradually add hot syrup mixture, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form, about 7 to 10 minutes.
