Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large Egg whites
- 4 tablespoons Granulated sweetener (like erythritol or monk fruit sweetener)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Cream of tartar
- 2 tablespoons Water
Instructions
In a clean, heatproof mixing bowl, combine the egg whites, granulated sweetener, water, and cream of tartar.
Place the mixing bowl over a saucepan containing about 1 inch of simmering water. Do not let the bottom of the bowl touch the water.
Whisk the mixture constantly with a hand whisk until the granulated sweetener has dissolved completely, and the mixture reaches a temperature of approximately 160°F (about 3-4 minutes).
Remove the bowl from the heat and transfer the mixture to a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, or use a hand mixer.
Add the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt to the mixture.
Beat on high speed for 4-5 minutes, or until stiff peaks form and the frosting is glossy and fluffy.
Use the frosting immediately to decorate your cake, cupcakes, or cookies. It’s best used fresh as it can lose its fluffiness over time.
