7-Minute Lemon Icing - 12 servings

Preparation: 5 min. Cooking: 10 min. Total: 15 min.
  • 2 egg whites
  • 1-1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 3 Tbsp cold water
  • 2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 2 Tbsp light corn syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract, optional
  • 1 tsp lemon zest

Combine all ingredients, except vanilla and lemon zest, in the top of a double boiler or bowl. Bring water in the bottom of the double boiler or saucepan (if using a bowl) to a simmer. Place top of the double boiler or the bowl over the simmering water. Immediately begin whipping mixture 3 minutes with an electric mixer on medium speed. Increase speed to high and beat another 3 minutes. Remove top of double boiler. Add vanilla and lemon zest. Beat 1 minute on high speed until mixture holds stiff peaks and is satiny. Makes enough to fill and frost a double layer 8 or 9 inch cake.
