Cake Frosting

Here you go Ashlee!

3/4 c. sugar
1/4 c. light corn syrup
2 T. water
2 egg whites
1/4 tsp. cream of tartar
1/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. vanilla

Put all ingredients except vanilla in a pan. (Use a double boiler if you have one - which I don't - so I boil water in a big pan and then put the ingredients in a smaller pan and hold it on top of the boiling water.) Turn stove on high. Beat while heating until the frosting is stiff and thickened. (Takes probably 10-15 minutes. Basically you just want it thick enough to spread without sliding off.) Remove from heat and add vanilla. Beat some more. Add food coloring if desired. Spread on cake.
