seven-minute frosting
Definition:
A fluffy, meringue-type frosting consisting of egg whites, sugar, cream of tartar, water and vanilla. The mixture is beaten constantly in the top of a double boiler over hot water. When stiff peaks form (a process which, as the name suggests, takes about 7 minutes), the frosting is done.
