Cook over medium heat, stirring until sugar is dissolved.
Continue cooking until mixture forms a very soft ball in cold water (or to temperature of 232° F.).
Stir occasionally to prevent scorching.
Remove from heat, add butter without stirring, and cool until the bottom of the saucepan feels lukewarm (about 1 hour).
Then add vanilla and beat until frosting is creamy and barely holds its shape.
Spread quickly on cake before frosting hardens.
