This is a very good frosting. You may flavor it with any flavoring extract to suit your needs.
3 cups white sugar
1 cup water
¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
3 egg whites
1 pinch salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Dessert
Directions
Combine sugar water and cream of tartar in a saucepan. Cook until candy thermometer reaches 238 degrees F (115 degrees C) or until syrup spins a long thread when dripped from a spoon.
Beat egg whites until stiff. Pour a thin slow stream of the syrup into egg whites beating constantly until frosting stands in peaks. Stir in salt and vanilla to taste.
