This is the best frosting I've ever had! Definitely only use 4 cups of sugar - it's plenty sweet enough at 4 cups! And I didn't use food coloring. Other than that, I followed the recipe to a T and it came out extremely tasty. Thank you!

As I added the sugar I found four cups worked for me so I stopped right there and only added enough milk to get it to the proper consistency for piping onto cupcakes. I wanted a true butter tasting frosting that wasn't too sweet - six cups would have defeated that. With four cups I got a beautiful, light, fluffy, not-too-sweet butter cream frosting.

A little too sweet for my taste, but came out beautifully and spread very well.

It had a very good flavor however it was very sweet. I made it through mine but my husband had a few bites and had to give up.

It makes a nice consistency. The frosting itself is bland and powdery. I wish I would have know before I delivered it to a class full of kinder age kids.

I made this frosting for cupcakes I served at my daughter's 2nd birthday. It was easy to make and was delicious! My cupcakes were not very sweet so this frosting was a perfect match. It also tastes great paired with small pretzel twists!

very easy to make. i have been looking for a simple recipes and decided to try this i cut the servings to 1 to do a taste test. i have a sweet tooth and it was a bit sweet but still good. this recipe is very easy to change the flavor. i made peanut butter and chocolate. the peanut butter reminds me of reese's peices and the chocolate took away the 2-sweet flavor. so over all very good recipe! p.s. to change the flavor u gotta experiment start with small servings and keep adding till u get the right flavor for you

This is by far the BEST frosting I've ever made or eaten. I was looking for something quick that didn't require cooking and this one exceeded my expectations. I will be making this quite often. My family loves it too.
