The ingredients for Sugarfree Italian Merengue Icing are:

1 c granulated Splenda
1/4 cup water
2 cups (4 sticks) butter, softened but not room temp
DO NOT USE MARGERINE
1 tsp vanilla or almond extract. Or you can do half and half.

Here is how you make Sugarfree Italian Merengue Icing:

Make sure your bowl and whisk are very clean or your merengue will not whip up. And don't worry about the egg whites making you sick. The hot syrup will cook the whites to make them safe to eat.Mix splenda and water in a small sauce pan. Clip thermometer to the pan with the thermometer not touching the bottom of the pan but immersed in the mixture. Cook at medium high heat. You want the syrup to reach 245 degrees. Stir occassionally.While syrup is cooking, move on the the eggs. Place the egg whites in the bowl and mix on low speed until frothy. Then kick up the speed to high and really whip them to stiff peaks. Once the sugar has reached 245 degrees, remove from heat and immediately pour, in a stream, into the eggs as the whisk is still beating them. Continue to beat the egg whites until the bottom of the bowl is cool to the touch. If you add the butter before the egg whites have fully cooled, your butter will melt. Add you butter 1/2 a stick at a time, cubed, until fully incorporated then add the next 1/2, etc. Once you've added all of your butter, make sure it's all inconcoporated. You can add other flavorings to this, other extracts, instead of the vanilla. Lemon, lime or orange zest. Just watch your carb count. I'm telling you, this is heaven on a fork. Just keep in mind that it will be buttery in flavor. Serving Size:?8 servingsNumber of Servings: 24Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user AMYWIGS.
