7 MINUTE FROSTING

Old fashioned 7 Minute Frosting that tastes like marshmallow cream. A light and fluffy frosting for just about any cake!

Ingredients

  • 2 large egg whites unbeaten
  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
  • ⅓ cup cold water
  • ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar or 1 teaspoon corn syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Combine the egg whites, sugar, water and cream of tartar in the top of a double boiler. Mix thoroughly.
  • Place over boiling water and beat constantly until mixture holds a peak. This will take at least 7 minutes, but most likely closer to 10 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat.
  • Add vanilla and beat until thick enough to spread.
  • Makes 5-6 cups of frosting.

Notes

The calories shown are based on the recipe frosting a cake that serves 15, with 1 serving the frosting for one slice of cake (about 1/3 cup).
