Southern Fluffy Frosting

I adopted this great recipe...original text was....a fluffy meringue type frosting, similar to 7 minute frosting but doesn't require beating over the stove.

Steps

Place sugar , corn syrup and boiling water in a 3 qt saucepan over moderate heat.
Stir until sugar dissolves.
When mixture comes to a full boil , remove from heat and set aside briefly beat egg whites with salt to stiff peaks.
Transfer hot syrup to a pitcher for easy pouring.
Beating at high speed , pour hot syrup in a thin threadlike stream into the whites.
Pour slowly and scrape down sides if necessary to keep the entire mass well mixed.
After all of the syrup has been beaten in , add vanilla and almond extract.
Continue beating for 10-15 minutes on high until icing is very stiff.

Ingredients

granulated sugar, light corn syrup, boiling water, egg whites, salt, vanilla, almond extract
