Very tasty icing! I had to change the ingredients a bit due to the time of year and my poorly stocked fridge - I used salted butter, and a scant cup of frozen raspberries (then I thawed them). I used about 3.5 cups of icing sugar. I was a little nervous about having raw egg in the icing, but sometimes you have to live on the edge :-) My husband and preschool children also liked this icing, and we will be making it again. Thanks for posting it!
