Ingredients
- 4cups confectioners’ sugar, sifted
- 1large egg white, slightly beaten
- 2tablespoons whole milk
- 1teaspoon fresh lemon juice
Preparation
- Put the sugar into the Cuisinart® mixing bowl. Attach the chef’s whisk and mix on Speed 3 and, with the mixer running, slowly add in the egg white until fully incorporated, about 1 minute.
- While the mixer is still running, add the milk and lemon juice and mix until fully incorporated. Scrape the entire bowl as necessary.
- Continue mixing until soft peaks form, about2 minutes. Use immediately or cover the bowl with a damp cloth so the icing does not harden. If using coloring or a flavoring extract for the icing, add it with the milk and lemon juice.
