Combine 3/4 cup sugar, 1/4 cup water, egg white, corn syrup, cream of tartar and salt in top of double boiler. Place mixture over rapidly boiling water (water should not touch bottom of pan); beat at highest speed with hand mixer 7 minutes or until mixture forms stiff peaks. (Do not overcook.) Remove from heat; add vanilla. Continue beating 2 minutes or until frosting holds deep swirls.
