By RoketJSquerl

Ingredients

• 8 egg whites, room temperature
• 2 1/4 cups granulated sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
• pinch of salt
• 3 teaspoons vanilla extract

Preparation

Step 1

Pour about ½ cup of water into a medium-sized saucepan and bring to a simmer.
Add egg whites, sugar, cream of tartar, and salt and water to the bowl of an electric mixer. Whisk with hand-held whisk until the ingredients begin to become foamy.
Place the bowl over the saucepan of simmering water and continue to whisk until the sugar is completely dissolved, about 5 minutes.
Remove the bowl from the saucepan and transfer to a stand mixer with the whisk attachment attached. Turn mixer to medium setting and whip for about 1 minute. Increase the speed to high and whip until stiff peaks are formed, about 5-7 minutes. Reduce speed and incorporate vanilla.
