7 minute frosting
This frosting turns out fluffy and meringue-like. Almost like a trip to the clouds.

The recipe idea:
This fat-free frosting is gloriously sweet and sticky. Because of it's texture, we don't recommend it for complex cake decorating. Works best simply as a spread-on frosting.
Ingredients:
- 2 egg whites
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 2 teaspoons light corn syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1/3 cup coldwater
- Dash of salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions:
Prepare a double boiler (Place a smaller saucepan inside a larger saucepan that contains water. Make sure the water doesn't flow over into the smaller saucepan.) Combine all ingredients except vanilla in top of double boiler. Over high heat, cook until water in bottom of double boiler starts to boil. As water heats, start beating egg white mixture on high speed with an electric mixer. Continue to beat for about 7 minutes, or until mixture forms stiff peaks. Remove from heat and add vanilla extract. Beat for an additional 2 minutes.
