Makes 2 1/3 cups
-1 box confectioners' sugar (1 pound)
-5 tablespoons meringue powder, or 2 large egg whites
- 1/2 cup of water
In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine sugar and meringue powder or 2 egg whites. Mixing on low speed, slowly add a 1/2 cup water (if adding egg whites, add less water). For a thinner consistency, usually used for flooding, add more water. A thicker consistency is generally used for outlining and adding details. Mix until icing holds a ribbonlike trail on the surface of the mixture for 5 seconds when you raise the paddle.
