  2. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly.
  3. Once boiling, continue to boil hard for exactly 1 minute without stirring.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  5. Beat vigorously with a whisk or electric mixer until the icing reaches a smooth, spreadable consistency (about 2-3 minutes).
