This is very tasty and easy to make. The only problem i have is the fact that I live in the state of Florida where it is VERY hot and humid so bringing this to an outside event means DISASTER!! next time i will cut back on the milk by half

This is the first time I have made any type of frosting, and it turned out perfectly for my son's bday cake. I used butter instead of margarine, and 1 tsp vanilla extract, 1/2 tsp almond extract. I also sifted the sugar. I made this the night before I decorated my son's cake, put it in the fridge overnight, and was then able to use it after about 20 minutes in room air with a pastry bag and tip (first time ever decorating a cake as well!). The frosting worked very well, held its shape, and tasted great, per everyone's review at the bday party! I would highly recommend this recipe and will be using it again.

*KEPENATE* I read your review I will agree that if you did the recipe as wrote, it might taste like super market icing but I happen to like it when I have it, since it's only maybe twice a year. The recipe is a excellent one but as a cook, you sometimes need to add your own flare to things. What you like, may not be what the recipe giver likes so to each his own so make it your own. I added heavy whipping cream at the end because I found the icing too heavy for me so the whipping cream made it much lighter and I also added lemon flavor instead of vanilla and some lemon zest. I'm adding this icing to a carrot cake that I added pineapples in the batter the cake is hit . I love this recipe this is my first time making butter cream frosting thank you for my NOW recipe :)

I'm new to the butter cream world, but I found this WAY too sweet. I won't use again.

So I used this recipe for cupcakes I was baking with $ little girls i was babysitting and decided to brighten up the flavor by replacing the vanilla extract with about 1 Tablespoon of lemon extract. I also used Wilton's Lavender & Sunshine Yellow food dyes to make it a little more fun(optional). The girls had a great time and the recipe was actually pretty easy to follow. My only suggestion (because we were piping the frosting) is to add a little more powdered sugar as you're beating it so that it can hold it's form. :) Thanks so much
