List of Ingredients
2 egg whites
1 1/2 cups fine granulated sugar
5 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 can moist coconut Recipe
This frosting is enough for a two-layer cake. Put egg whites, sugar and water in the top of a double boiler and mix well. Place over boiling water and beat with a rotary beater for 7 minutes exactly. The frosting should be shiny and thick. Remove from heat. Add the vanilla and beat a few more turns. Spread one layer of the cake with frosting and sprinkle on some of the coconut. Cover the top layer and sides with frosting and sprinkle with rest of coconut.
