1 Tbsp cornstarch

       1/8 tsp. Salt

       1/2 cup cold water

       1 tsp vanilla extract

 

I put my sugar and cornstarch in a small pan, and crush the lumps of cornstarch. Add the salt and water, and place on stove and cook on high until it begins to boil. As soon as it starts to boil, turn it down to about medium heat, stirring constantly until it begins to mound. remove from heat and let cool a little and add your vanilla extract. (I use the clear vanilla extract, you can use the regular if you choose.)

This mixture is for 3 eggwhites, already whipped to a firm meringue...I add a bit of sugar to the meringue as well, then add my mixture and beat until it's all mixed together well. Put it on whatever and bake at 425 for about 7 to 8 minutes, and it's a light golden brown color...Yummy, it's the best meringue I've had or made...It really is no fail, it won't hardly fall for any reason...You go girls!
