This week, I am sharing a great cake recipe for the holidays. Today is the frosting for the cake
1 1/2 cups firmly packed light brown sugar
1 cup egg whites (about 8 egg whites), room temperature
2/3 cup granulated sugar
2 2/3 cups butter, cubed and softened
2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
in the heatproof bowl of a stand mixer, whisk together brown sugar, egg whites, and granulated sugar by hand. Place bowl over. a saucepan of simmering water. Cook, whisking occassionally, until sugars completely dissolve and an instant -read thermometer registers 120-130℉.
Carefully return bowl to stand mixer. Using the whisk attachment, beat at high speed until bowl is cool to the touch, 10 to 12 minutes. Add butter, about 2 tablespoons at a time, beating until combined after each addition. Frosting will be shiny and smooth.
Enjoy!!!
