SEVEN MINUTE FROSTING RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients except vanilla in top of double boiler.
• Place water in bottom pan of double boiler. Cook over high heat 3-4 minutes or until water boils. Place egg white mixture in top of double boiler over rapidly boiling water (water should not touch bottom of pan); beat at highest speed with hand mixer 7 minutes or until mixture forms stiff peaks. (Do not overcook.) Remove from heat; add vanilla.
• Continue beating 2 minutes or until frosting holds deep swirls.

Steps:

• Place water in a small sauce pan.
• Add Sugar but, do not stir.
• Place saucepan over medium-high heat, bring to 238º.
• While sugar is cooking, separate the egg whites from the yolks. Save yolks for use later.
• Place the egg whites in a large mixing bowl.
• Add the Cream of Tartar.
• Add the pinch of Salt.
• Use a blender, on high speed and beat egg whites until they form soft peaks.
• When sugar syrup reaches 238º, slowly add, in a small stream, to the egg whites.
• Continue to beat the egg whites on high speed while adding all the sugar syrup over about a 5 minute period of time. Careful, the sugar syrup is very hot.
• Add the Vanilla Extract and beat another minute or so to incorporate the vanilla. Continue to beat only as long as needed to form firm peaks.
• Work quickly to spread over cake as the egg whites may continue to firm up and set.
• Enjoy!
