Apple Cake with Egg White Frosting

The first time I prepared Mocha Cake  for my daughter Destine’s birthday, I was thinking of putting a white frosting on top, unfortunately the result was different :). It was still tasty and good though.

Today, I tried doing it again using egg whites. I prepared a baked apple cake (see only the ingredients and bake for 15-20minutes)  placed in a banana pan. Funny with the combination but the amount of the apple cake ingredients is too small to fit in a round or rectangular baking pan.



The purpose of this post concentrates on the frosting because I failed to do it last time. I really believe in the saying, “there’s always a second try” or “try and try until you succeed” :)



Ingredients:

- 8 tbsp granulated sugar

- 1 tbsp cornstarch

- ½ cup water

- 2 egg whites

- pinch of salt

- ½ tsp vanilla extract



What you need:

- electric mixer

- piping set



Procedure:

- combine 2 tbsp sugar, cornstarch, and water

- cook in low heat, stir occasionally until thickens

- remove from heat and set aside

- meanwhile, get a mixing bowl and put egg whites, salt, vanilla, and the remaining sugar

- use an electric mixer and beat on medium to high speed until soft peak

- gradually add the sugar mixture (cooked earlier) and beat until becomes firm, this is for about 7 – 10 minutes

- top it up on your cake using the piping design of your choice

- serve and enjoy
