This is your Grandmother Snider's recipe and I lose it fairly often because I make it very infrequently. But it's the one and only.
1/2 cup water
1 1/2 tablespoons light corn syrup
1 1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg whites
1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
Heat water, syrup, sugar, cream of tartar and salt in a small saucepan over medium heat until sugar is completely dissolved.
Place egg whites in bowl. Whip at Speed 10 (Kitchenaid) until whites begin to hold shape (about 45 seconds. Continue beating and pour the hot syrup gradually into bowl in fine stream -- should take about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Add vanilla and continue whipping abou 5 minutes or until frosting loses it's shiny appearance and will stand in stiff peaks. Stop. (Who wrote this recipe? Stop???) Frost cake immediately.
