Buttercream Cake Decorating Frosting

This recipe is a thick buttercream frosting ideal for frosting cakes. I have used it on cookies, but just added less powdered sugar.

Ingredients:

• 1 cube of butter softened
• 1/2 cup of shortening
• 4 cups of powdered sugar
• almond or vanilla extract
• 1-2 TBS. milk

Mix all ingredients until smooth. Add more powdered sugar if you need it thicker. Add more milk if you need it thinner. EASY!
