I'm not giving stars because I may have screwed up. I halved the recipe as I only had cupcakes to frost. I'm not sure if halving the recipe didn't affect the consistency; it just didn't set up and I DID beat it in the KitchenAid for 10 minutes as the directions call for. Tasty, indeed, but wasn't firm enough. I hesitated to keep adding powdered sugar because I don't care for the taste of "over" powdered sugar'ed frostings. But I guess I should have. Thanks for posting. I'll have to try it again.
