Yield Makes enough for one 8-inch cake

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup raisins, chopped
1/4 cup rum, kirsch, or warm tea
2 cups sugar
4 large egg whites
Pinch salt
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup chopped dried figs

Steps:

  • Place raisins and liquor or tea in a small bowl; set aside. In a small saucepan, bring sugar and a little more than 1/2 cup water to a boil. Continue boiling until syrup reaches 234 degrees to 238 degrees on a candy thermometer (soft-ball stage).
  • Place egg whites in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, and beat on low speed until foamy. Add salt and beat on medium-high speed until stiff but not dry; do not overbeat.
  • With mixer running, add syrup to whites in a stream, beating on high speed until no longer steaming, about 3 minutes. Add vanilla and beat until well incorporated.
  • For the filling, transfer one-third of the frosting to a medium bowl. Drain raisins and stir into the frosting along with walnuts and figs.

I had some trouble getting the frosting to the right consistency. It was a bit too runny at first, but I was able to fix it by adding more powdered sugar.

I love the combination of flavors in this frosting. The brown sugar and molasses give it a rich, caramel-like flavor, and the nuts add a nice crunch.
