Ingredients

  • 0.8 cup plus light
  • 0.3 teaspoon cream of tartar 
  • large egg whites at room temperature
  • 0.5 cup granulated sugar 
  • pinch salt fine
  • 1.5 teaspoons vanilla extract 
  • 0.3 cup water 

Equipment

  • bowl
  • frying pan
  • sauce pan
  • whisk
  • blender
  • stand mixer
  • spatula
  • candy thermometer

Directions

  1. Place the egg whites in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment and beat on medium speed until frothy, about 1 minute.
  2. Add the cream of tartar and salt, increase the speed to high, and beat until stiff peaks form, about 2 minutes more; set aside.
  3. Place the corn syrup, sugar, water, and 3/4 teaspoon of the vanilla in a small, heavy-bottomed saucepan over high heat and stir with a rubber spatula until the sugar dissolves. Bring to a boil, swirling the pan occasionally (do not use the spatula to stir), until the mixture is light amber in color and registers 240°F on a candy thermometer. Immediately remove the saucepan from the heat.With the mixer on low speed, very slowly pour the hot syrup into the egg-white mixture and continue beating until the sauce is smooth, glossy, and opaque and flows like molten lava, about 2 minutes total. Beat in the remaining 3/4 teaspoon vanilla.
  4. Transfer the sauce to a container, cover, and refrigerate until cold before using.
