Instructions: Place all the ingredients except the vanilla extract in the top of a double boiler (but dont place over boiling water yet.) Add 1/4 cup of the burnt sugar syrup. With a small electric mixer, beat 1/2 minute at low speed.

Place pot over boiling water, but dont allow the pan to touch the boiling water. Cook, beating constantly, until the frosting forms stiff peaks, about 7 minutes. Add vanilla. Remove from heat and beat 2 minutes longer.
