Gramma Nickys Tom And Jerry Batter Recipes

Steps:

• Mix the sugar, water and syrup in a medium pan. Boil on medium high heat until mixture forms a thread (230 to 233 Degrees F).
• While mixture is boiling, beat 6 egg whites until stiff peaks form, saving beaten yolks in a separate bowl.
• In a Kitchen Aid Mixer on 2 to 4 speed, slowly pour hot syrup mixture over the stiffly beaten egg whites. Do not scrape the hot pan. Beat mixture on high until it cools slightly -- 2 to 3 minutes. Then SLOWLY add beaten egg yolks. Beat a few more minutes more, then add vanilla and baking powder. Beat until mixture is cool.
