Recipe Introduction


(Light and yummy!)


List of Ingredients




1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup water
1 tablespoon corn syrup
3 egg whites
1 cup sweet soft butter.


Recipe



Combine 2/3 cup of sugar with water and corn syrup in a saucepan. Stir over low heat until sugar is completely dissolved. Raise heat and boil syrup without stirring until a candy thermometer reads 238 degrees F, or a few drops of syrup form a soft ball in cold water.
While syrup is cooking, beat egg whites until they form soft peaks. Gradually beat in remaining sugar, a little at a time, until whites are firm. Pour boiling syrup in a fine stream over whites, beating constantly. If beating by hand, use a wire whisk while adding syrup. Continue beating until completely smooth and stiff. COOL.
Cream butter until soft and fluffy. Beat meringue mixture into butter. Flavor as desired. Makes 2 cups butter cream.
