FLUFFY WHITE FROSTING
This is a favorite of my family's (especially my 16 year old--the only frosting she will ever make). It is in response to a request on the boards. If you are planning to use this on a chocolate cake, clear vanilla will produce a stark white frosting that contrasts beautifully with the chocolate. This is a light, fluffy frosting and doesn't over-power the flavor of any cake that you choose to top with it. My daughters also like to spread it on graham crackers for 'graham cracker sandwiches'.

EXTRA CREAMY FLUFFY WHITE FROSTING
This is a really great fluffy white frosting --- for the best results use only whipping cream for this --- this may easily be doubled and also freezes well.
