Ingredients

Scale

2 Tablespoons of Meringue Powder*
3 1/2 Tablespoons of water

Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

In a mixing bowl, add the meringue powder and 3 1/2 tablespoons of water.
Beat with a mixer until it’s foamy.
Add in the powder sugar, mix slowly until combined. I should note here that I used Great Value powdered sugar from Walmart and I never sift it. However, I’ve bought other brands that did need sifting. If you’re unsure – sift!!
Add the corn syrup and any extract, if desired.
Increase speed to high and beat for around 5 minutes, until you get stiff glossy peaks.
Do not overbeat!
Cover tightly with plastic wrap – make sure it touches the icing or the icing will harden!
*I really prefer Americolor Meringue Powder or CK Products Meringue Powder.
