Angel Icing - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 c. white sugar
1/2 c. water
2 Tbsp. Karo syrup (light)
2 egg whites

Preparation

Beat egg whites until they hold a stiff peak (at least 2 minutes).
Put first 3 ingredients in a pan and stir.
Put on stove and bring to a boil (use medium heat).
Boil syrup until it spins a 6 to 8-inch thread or 242\u00b0.
Pour hot syrup slowly into egg whites beating all the time.
Beat until frosting holds its shape (soft peaks).
This frosting forms a crust, like divinity.
