Description

My husband is so picky about food but he loves this frosting. At least, he did until he found out what it was made of.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Butter
  • 1 cup Shortening
  • 1 Tablespoon Milk Or Water
  • 1 Tablespoon Vanilla
  • 1 package Powdered Sugar

Preparation

Cream butter and shortening together.

Stir in water or milk (the milk will allow the frosting to crust up a little bit if you’re using it to decorate a cake).

Add vanilla (I like to add a little more because I love vanilla). Stir.

Stir in powdered sugar a little at a time until you get the consistency that you like.

Example: To just frost a cake you’ll want it a little thin, but to decorate you’ll want it thicker.
