FIXING BOILED FROSTING

You decided that for dessert tonight you were going to try to make a nice boiled white frosting. As you are making the recipe, you notice that it is not cooking up correctly.

While it is cooking, you notice that it is becoming sugary. While you are mixing it, add about a ¼ teaspoon of lemon juice. Continue to mix well, blending in the lemon juice well. If it is still looking sugary, try one more time. If you cannot get it to recover, toss the frosting and try again.

You have the frosting all cooked and ready to go on the cake, but the frosting won’t set up. Keep mixing the frosting, and start adding sifted powdered sugar into the frosting until it reaches a spreadable consistency.
