Calories: 84kcal
- 1 1/2 cups Granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon Cream of tartar
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 1/3 cup Water
- 2 teaspoons Light corn syrup
- 2 Egg whites
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
On top of a double boiler, combine all ingredients with a whisk except the vanilla.
Place over rapidly boiling water but make sure water does not touch the bottom of the pan. Beat the mixture on high speed using a hand mixer until stiff peaks develop, which takes about 7 minutes.
Remove from heat, add vanilla then continue beating until frosting holds deep swirls then frost.
- Prep your mixing bowl by wiping it out with white vinegar and a towel. This will remove any grease or build up that will prevent your frosting from coming together.
- This is not a traditional frosting recipe. Once your seven minute frosting recipe is made, you’ll need to use it immediately.
- Room temperature egg whites whip up better than cold ones. So make sure you take your eggs out of the fridge at least 30 minutes before you start making the frosting.
