Ingredients
4 egg whites
6 cups confectioners' sugar
1/2 tsp. cream of tartar
Directions
In an electric mixer, beat the egg whites with 1 cup of the sugar and the cream of tartar until smooth. Add the remaining sugar, 1 cup at time. Mix until creamy and smooth.
TESTER'S TIP
If you plan to eat your cookie house and are concerned about raw eggs, substitute 2 tablespoons water and 2 teaspoons Wilton meringue powder (available at stores that sell cake-decorating supplies) for each egg white.
