Additional information:
I found this recipe while searching for the perfect frosting for my brother-in-law's wedding cake. It's very adaptable and goes well with lots of flavors.
Whisk egg whites and sugar in large metal mixing bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Whisk until sugar dissolves and mixture is warm.
Mix with mixer on high speed until thick and cooled, about 10 minutes.
Reduce speed to medium-low. Add butter, a few pieces at a time, beating well after each addition. (You'll feel the frosting thicken as you add the last stick of butter.)
Beat in food coloring a drop at a time. Reduce speed on mixer to low and beat until smooth.
