Royal Icing

Yields: 2 1/2 cupa

Ingredients:
  • 2 large egg whites or egg-white substitute, or more to thin icing
  • 4 cups sifted confectioners’ sugar, or more to thicken icing
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • assorted food coloring
Beat the egg whites until stiff but not dry. Add sugar and lemon juice; beat for 1 minute more. If icing is too thick, add more egg whites; if it is too thin, add more sugar. Add food coloring to achieve desired color.
