Marshmallow Frosting - cooking recipe

Ingredients

4 large egg whites
1 cup ordinary white sugar or 1 cup brown sugar
1 pinch salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Preparation

Place all ingredients except the vanilla essence into a bowl which you can place over a pot of simmering water.
{You could use a double boiler here instead}.
Whisk the egg white mixture constantly over simmering water until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is hot to the touch. {It takes around 5 minutes}.
Pour the mixture into a bigger bowl and beat with an electric mixer for 3 minutes. {Add the vanilla while beating}. After 3 minutes, the mixture will be lovely and fluffy.
{I used my Kitchen Aid food mixer}.
I love using disposable piping bags - {or you could even use a plastic bag} without a nozzle, I simply piped straight out the end of the piping bag directly onto the cupcakes.
