This fluffy, egg-white frosting is made by combining whipped egg whites with hot sugar syrup until meringue-like. Works well on almost any type of cake.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 0.33 cups water
  • 0.25 teaspoons cream of tartar
  • 2 eggs whites
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. 1

    Stir sugar, water, and cream of tartar together in a saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat until sugar is dissolved and syrup is bubbly.

  2. 2

    Beat egg whites and vanilla in a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl until foamy. Gradually add hot syrup mixture, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form, about 7 to 10 minutes.
