1/2 c Sugar
2 t Water
2 Packets Sweet & Low
2 Larger egg whites
1/4 t Cream of tartar
1/2 t Vanilla
Combine sugar, water, Sweet'n Low, egg whites, and cream of tartar in
top of a double boiler and beat at high speed for 1 minute. Set over
simmering water in the bottom of the double boiler. Continue to beat
at high speed for 4-5 minutes or until soft peaks form. Remove from
heat. Add vanilla to frosting and continue beating at high speed 1/2
minutes or until thick enough to spread on a cooled cake. Use about
2 1/2 tablespoons per portion if frosting individually; or use this
amount to frost a 2-layer cake or a 9-inch square cake, both of which
would then be cut in 16 equal servings.
