                This recipe is pretty good, and it's easy.  Texture was great for piping.  I received a lot of compliments on the taste of the frosting.  I must say it is a bit too buttery for me, but my tolerance may have decreased because of all the samples I had when I first made it.

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 5 large egg whites, room temperature
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 pound (4 sticks) unsalted butter, softened, cut into pieces
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

Directions

Place sugar, whites, and salt in a heatproof mixer bowl set over a pot of simmering water. Whisk until sugar dissolves and mixture registers 160 degrees on a candy thermometer.

Attach bowl to mixer. Whisk on medium speed for 5 minutes. Increase speed to medium-high, and whisk until stiff, glossy peaks form, about 6 minutes. Reduce speed to medium, and add butter, 1 piece at a time, whisking well after each addition. Whisk in vanilla. Use immediately, or cover, and refrigerate for up to 3 days. (Bring to room temperature, and beat on low speed until smooth before using.)
