  1. I made the frosting today and it turned out tooo sweet. I used 1 cup of powdered sugar, just as called for, but I ended up throwing it away after letting my husband and friend tasted it. I tried the second time without the sugar just butter and marshmallow. It turned out better.
     
  2. This was very fluffy and light. A great recipe. From Brewhead
     
  3. Amazing! Loved it!
     
  4. Very fluffy frosting. Spreads on very nicely, looks beautiful on a cake, but WAY TOO SWEET.
     
  5. BEST.FROSTING.EVER. I have made tons of different frosting and this is by far the best I have ever tasted! It tastes exactly like vanilla ice cream. Yum! Not too sweet, not buttery or gritty, it is perfect! Spreads great too. My new go to recipe.

Hubby wanted a cake with whipped cream frosting bought from the store for his b-day, but after trying this one he wanted this instead. That is saying a lot!! Thanks for the submit!!!

After DH and I moved away from the farm, and to the city...I haven't done as much cooking and very little canning. But I do come to Zaar and look for new recipes once in a while. I'm still cooking Zaar!! I like to play at Facebook, with my family and friends. A lot of my Zaar friends are there!! Yay! It's a good way to keep in touch. We travel more. We're looking at the European trips now. Hope to go in the springtime. I really want to see London, I think I lived there in a past life, I've been obsessed with it since I was 10 years old!!
