Resist the urge to double the recipe! This recipe makes more than you might think.
A really great frosting that makes the right amount for one batch of cookies. I added my own natural/vegetarian light blue coloring (from boiled purple cabbage/baking soda) and added to frosting. No hint of vegetable taste but beautiful powdery blue. Sublime!
Need to whip eggs before adding sugar. Not successful for me when I combined egg and sugar first
Need to beat eggs before adding sugar. Not a successful recipe for me when I combined sugar and egg first. Too thick, not shiny. Thinned w spicy water and root beer

What do I use to mix the egg whites and sugar—spoon, whisk, hand mixer? (I’m a casserole cook, anything remotely to do with baking and I am at less than novice level!)
