SEVEN-MINUTE FROSTING FOR RED VELVET CHOCOLATE CAKE

• In a small heavy saucepan, combine 1 cup sugar, corn syrup, and 1/3 cup water.

Remove syrup from heat, and pour in a steady stream down the side of the bowl containing the egg-white mixture, with mixer on medium-low speed. Increase speed to medium, and beat until cool, about 9 minutes. Add vanilla, and beat for 2 minutes more. Use immediately to frost cake.
