Ingredients
- 5 tbsp meringue powder
- 1 tbsp light corn syrup
- 1 tsp CLEAR vanilla extract
- 1 cup water
- 2 lbs powdered sugar
Instructions
Step 1
In a mixer, combine meringue powder, light corn syrup, clear vanilla extract, and water.
Step 2
Using a hand whisk, mix ingredients until the mixture becomes foamy.
Step 3
Add the powdered sugar to the mixture.
Step 4
Hand whisk the mixture until the powdered sugar is incorporated and looks soupy. (I do this step so the powdered sugar doesn’t fly everywhere when I start the mixer in the next step.)
Step 5
Attach the paddle attachment and beat mixture on medium-high for about 4-6 minutes.
Step 6
The mixture should begin to thicken and whiten.
Step 7
Mix until the icing forms peaks. (If you remove the paddle and wiggle it, the icing should kind of jiggle but the peaks will remain intact.)
