Liked it so much for my daughter's 10th birthday that we made it again (only substituting Almond Extract for Vanilla) for my husband's birthday. We'll see how that turns out.

BakingLuvr is right. Simple and good. That's what counts. I didn't want a recipe that was too intense. Just wanted something simple but I made a really good frosting that I knew was going to be perfect with white cake. Thank you.
