frosting for 18 cupcakes
Ingredients:
- 1 cup of granulated white sugar (not powdered sugar)
- 4 egg whites, room temperature
- 1/3 cup of water
- ½ teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
Preparation:
In a medium saucepan, bring the 1/3 cup of water, sugar,
cream of tartar to a boil. Do not stir the sugar mixture as this will cause it to crystallize.

do not boil even a second longer
.In a metal bowl that fits into your electric mixer,
add the egg whites and beat them until they start to get thick and form soft peaks.
Set your timer for 7 minutes.
Beat the egg mixture on high speed
while slowly streaming the sugar syrup in a little at a time into the mixer for 7 minutes.
