2 egg whites
1 1/2 c. light brown sugar, packed
1/3 c. water
1 T. light corn syrup
1/4 t. cream of tartar
1 t. vanilla
In top of double boiler, combine egg whites, brown sugar, corn syrup and 1/3 c. water. Beat together. Cook over rapidly boiling water (water should not touch top of double boiler), beating constantly, about 7 minutes or until stiff peaks form when beater is raised. Remove from boiling water. Add vanilla; continue beating until frosting is thick enough to spread, about 2 minutes. Makes enough to fill and frost an 8 or 9 inch two-layer cake, or to frost a 13 x 9 cake.
