Decorator Buttercream Icing image

I always use this when I decorate cakes and I get many, many compliments on the wonderful taste. It is not that usual shortening-and-sugar-bakery-icing taste. If I am not using it to decorate a cake with, I use my all butter variation: Recipe #261024.

Time 10m

Yield 3 1/2 cups

1/2 cup real butter
1 1/2 teaspoons clear vanilla extract

5 cups confectioners' sugar
2 -3 tablespoons milk

Steps:

  • Cream butter and shortening then add vanilla.
  • Add sugar a cup at a time beating on medium speed.
