ok this has got to be my favourite frosting for cupcakes - its so light and fluffy yet marshmallowy at the same time - yum!! I posted this once before about a year ago and im coping out by posting it again -ive come down with the bug the boys had! Hopefully its a 24hr one here too and will be gone quickly but i thought it best not to actually bake anything while im icky! LOL
Best Frosting Ever!
Ingredients:
200g sugar
80ml water
0.8g cream of tartar
2 egg whites
5ml vanilla extract
Method:
1. In a saucepan, stir together the sugar, water and cream of tartar.
2. Cook over medium-high heat until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is bubbly.
3. In a medium mixing bowl, whip the egg whites and vanilla to soft peaks.4. Gradually add the sugar mixture while whipping constantly until stiff peaks form, about 7 to 10 minutes.
5. Frost the cake of your choice.Dont skimp on any of the boiling or mixing - its well worth it for peaks that stay perfect :)

I want to make this but I'm not sure what grams convert to.... what is 200g in either ml or imperial?
ReplyDeleteI really do need to try out this one...wonder what it would be like with chocolate addition?
ReplyDeleteNot sure if this is too late Carennedy, but 25g=1 oz so 200g would be 8oz
Happy baking!
