Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 6

5 scant tablespoons of all purpose flour
1 c milk
1 c crisco
1 c white granulated sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract

Steps:

  • 1. Into 5 scant tablespoons of flour, gradually blend 1 cup of milk, cook to a thick paste, stirring constantly and on a low heat.
  • 2. Cool to lukewarm. Meanwhile cream 1 cup crisco with 1 cup of sugar and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  • 3. Add the cool paste and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, then beat till fluffy. I sometimes add coconut oil instead of vanilla, then toast about 1 cup of coconut to sprinkle on top. Or orange flavoring, with fresh oranges slice around the edge of the cake, well you get the idea! peppermint oil, crushed peppermint on top ~~ You can also add food coloring !
