    List of Ingredients




    Yield: 1 servings

    2 c Sugar
    1 c Water
    2 tb Light corn syrup
    2 Egg whites
    1/8 ts Salt
    1/8 ts Cream of tartar
    1 ts Vanilla

    Recipe



    In a saucepan combine sugar, water and syrup and cook, stirring often, until sugar is dissolved. Boil until syrup reaches soft ball stage, 234º, on a candy thermometer. Beat eggs with saltuntil frothy. Add 1/3 of boiling syrup to the egg whites in a thin stream, beating constantly. Then return syrup to heat and cook a little more. Add second third of boiling syrup in the same manner.
    Place remainder of syrup on heat to reach crack stage,
    about 290º; add to egg whites. Add cream of tartar and
    vanilla. Whip until creamy. If icing gets too hard and
    stiff, add a few drops of water at a time until it is right
    consistency for smooth spreading.
