Boiled Icing
- Difficulty
Easy
Published 1975
This icing is very good. It is much easier to make if you have a sugar thermometer.
Ingredients
6 oz. 180 g. 3 tablespoons
Method
Boil the sugar, water, syrup and lemon juice together to 240° F. or until a ball forms when dropped in cold water. Do not stir while boiling or it will crystallize. Beat the egg whites until stiff, then pour over them the boiling syrup in a thin, slow stream, beating all the time. Continue beating for 7 minutes, or until cool and easy to spread.
