• ½ cup meringue powder
• 12 cups powdered sugar (Seems like a lot of powdered sugar but the icing will be thick & sticky which is exactly what you want!)
• 1¼ cups water

Special Equipment

• stand mixer with paddle attachment

1. Add all ingredients to stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment
2. Start mixer on low and mix ingredients on low or medium-low speed (no faster) for 7 minutes until consistency is thick and sticky and forms peaks. (If consistency is too thin, add a bit more powdered sugar; if too stiff, add a touch more water)

Options

1. Leave icing white or divide into separate containers and add food colorings of choice for decorating
2. Store covered, at room temperature, if not using immediately
