Wonderfully easy and delicious recipe. Beats the hell out of the canned stuff and so easy that even I can make it (this was my first time making frosting). I used all butter (1/2 cup) as opposed to shortening and butter and it tastes/looks great. Way too easy for as good as it is. Not a complex flavor I suppose, but DEFINITELY stands up to its name. Would definitely recommend!

My husband and I have lived in NJ for the last 28 years. We have 2 sons, both grown and no longer living at home, only one toy fox terrior dog now, 2 parakeets and 2 finches! I enjoy finding, using and sharing recipes I have found on the net. Also camping, working outside in the yard, family and good friend get togethers and just relaxing. This does not mean cleaning, lol.
