DELICIOUS!!! I added some pumpkin spice to the sugar before adding the butter. It gave a nice flavor (to my liking) and made it a light bronze color. I did not add any food coloring because I liked the color from the spice. Happy Halloween!!

Initially, I wondered about the amount of butter, but this whipped up nicely and was an excellent compliment to the cut out sugar cookies I frosted. Like others stated, it dries nicely so you can stack cookies but yet they are still soft when eaten. I added a 1/2 teaspoon of almond extract. Delicious and rich.

I was looking for a recipe for frosting. I have always winged it, using the powdered sugar, milk and vanilla and sometimes butter.I made this to decorate our Halloween cookies and my daughters loved it.They liked other recipes,but hey said to make sure I keep this recipe because this is THE BEST.I will definitley be making agian and again. In fact, I am making it this afternoon. One of these times, I would like to try it with some of the flavored coffee creamers for a different taste. Thank you for a great frosting recipe!!

I used this on "Soft Sugar Cookies IV" and it came out beautifully! Very easy to make and really tasty, not overly sweet as so many other frostings out there. I cut the recipe down to 1/4 and had plenty to frost 35 cookies. I also added some lemon extract since my cookies were lemon flavored as well. Will be making again!

We added a lime and a half of juice to this, and it turned out delicious! It was really hard to wait for the cake to finish baking so we could use it.

Came out awesome. I used it with the Best Rolled Sugar Cookies Recipie. No white streaks in frosting as someone else stated. I used regular food color and made orange and purple, beautiful. I added a wee bit more milk. Not grainy at all and dries hard for stacking. Of course it's sweet, it's supposed to be it's frosting. Will make again!

After attempting a buttercream frosting recipe from this site that was a complete disaster, I decided to try this one out. It turned out perfect! I used it for mini cupcakes for my brother's wedding and they disappeared. Everyone ate the cupcakes instead of the wedding cake! This icing sets up beautifully and tastes great too.

Perfect frosting! Used with Best Rolled Sugar Cookies- amazing! I divided it into as many colors as I needed and put them into baggies for my "decorator bags", snipping a SMALL corner for my tip. The only problem I had was all my own fault- I added the milk after the butter and sugar was totally combined, and it left little flecks of white all through the finished product. It worked out well since they were halloween cookies.(made them look ghoulish and kid-like) I will ABSOLUTELY make this (and only this) again!

This frosting is awesome! I use it to make my children's bday cakes. I usually put it in the decorator bag and chill it for a few min before decorating- makes it a little stiffer and easy to use.

I am not a fan of the crisco frosting for decorating, so I tried this one. LOVED IT! I added merigue to make sure it set up, and it was perfect. The warmth from my hands kept it a thin consistency, and I LOVED the taste! I had a hard time getting the frosting from the bowl to the cake because I kept eating it!
