Equipment

  • Stand Up Mixer

Ingredients

  • 4 egg whites
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 4 cups powdered sugar

Instructions

  • In a stand-up mixer, whisk the egg whites and vanilla at high speed until frothy (if you think it’s frothy go a little longer). It should look like a bowl full of bubbles.
  • Gradually add the powdered sugar and whisk on high speed for 5-7 minutes. Typically, the icing looks opaque white and glossy.
