Sweet Milk and Sugar Icing (Frosting)

"If you like frosting so sweet that it will gag you, then give this one a try. It uses 4 ingredients always on hand. The sweet milk in the title just lets you know it doesn't use buttermilk or sour milk. My family likes this on yellow cake or white cake, and to sandwich together teacakes. A word of advice...don't try to make this frosting if it is raining...it will NEVER get hard. And make sure to boil it the full 90 seconds, so that the icing isn't grainy."

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

The joy of my life are my 2 sons, born in Dec. 00 and Jan. 04. I am currently a stay at home mom and love to make homemade meals and treats for my family. I live in PA, but the rest of my family are in AL and GA, and my boys and I spend weeks at a time in the South. I enjoy traveling with my husband and 2 sons. I am an Auburn University Alumni and a HUGE Auburn Tigers fan...WAR EAGLE! From August until November, you know what I'll be doing on Saturdays...watching ANY NCAA game on TV. I am also a fan of NASCAR. I have only been to 2 tracks, Talladega several times and Dover once, but I hope to visit many more. Pocono is only an hour away, so maybe someday! Atlanta is another real possibility with family close by. My furbaby Wickett (a pekinese-poodle mix I had for almost 14 years) went to live at the Rainbow Bridge on April 4, 2007. He was literally my first born child! He will always be in my heart. We have a new dog now, Roxie, who is a Shih-tzu. I am an animal lover, and will always have a pet! <img src="http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj240/marienixon_715/kittencaljpg.jpg"> <img src="http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/Zaar%20World%20Tour%203/ZWT3-Participation.gif"> <img src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/222/511934835_9dc466e9a4_o.gif"> <img src="http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b158/bella_donata/My%20Art/Recipezaar/RedWhiteBlue.jpg" border="0" alt="Made by Bella14ragazza">
