I made this frosting yesterday to go with the Best Rolled Sugar Cookie recipe from this site. I didn't like the taste of the frosting. It was too rich for me, but bland at the same time. I used vanilla to flavor it. I also had to add a lot more liquid than the recipe called for to make it spreadable. After that, it spread fine, but as I said, the taste was too much for me.

I need to add a little water to it because it was so pasty and wouldnt stick to the cookies. It did dry beautiful and the color was great. People were impressed.

Delicious frosting. It's very nice and I will definitely use it again, but it's a tad sweet even for my liking. I'll reduce the sugar next time but I loved the butter taste. It took a while to set up as well and didn't set up as hard as I would have liked. But that doesn't matter much, the taste was awesome! Thanks.

I used this recipe today for sugar cookies and it is awesome. I made sure to beat the butter (I used real butter) and sugar for a while to get it light and fluffy. Tastes wonderful and dries so they can be stacked. We used decorator bags to put the icing on the cookies and it worked great. I actually wrapped some in plastic wrap to ship and the icing didn't smear at all. this is a real keeper and I will use it often. My girls kept eating it out of the bowl too.

great frosting for sugar cookies. Similar to a recipe I have used in the past. Frosting got hard enough to stack cookies, which was what I wanted. Will definitely make this again.

I made 2 batches of this. One batch with melted butter and one batch with softened butter. Both were good but melted butter made it much smoother and creamy(better for piping). I also added more milk.

FANTASTIC! I tried a new sugar cookie recipe and they turned out ho-hum. I decided to try and save them with some frosting (right over the sprinkles). This frosting turned them from drab to FAB! It was easy to make and it tastes wonderful! It really does make a huge batch. I made 24 cookies and still had loads left. If you're just making an "average" size batch of cookies, I'd halve the recipe. I also found it easier to mix the frosting once I'd microwaved it for a bit. To make different colors, I scooped small portions out into a seperate bowl and mixed in my color, then I microwaved it for 10 seconds at a time to get the right consistency to spread. Worked great and cooled well.

I used this frosting on gingerbread and sugar cookies. It has a really nice flavous and is soft and fluffy. great for speading or piping onto cookies. My single problem was that the recipe made WAY too much frosting! I planne don using it to ice my batch of gingerbread and used lots on them but still had dtons left. I hate to waste, so the next day I made suger cookies and frosted those too! Still I ended up chucking about a cup of frosting. That said, I will use this recipe again but I will definitely 1/2 it. If you do have leftovers and plan to use them within a couple days, put the frosting in a bowl, and cover tighly with saran wrap. When you're ready for it it will be very firm. Either leave the frosting sitting out for 2 hours or so before you will need it or microwave it for about 5 seconds. It returns fairly well to its original consistency.

It was way too runny, and by the time I thickened it up some with more powdered sugar, it was way too sweet. It also took forever to harden. It was okay. I may try again with a few changes.

outstanding! I slightly moistened my knife so that it spread smoothly- very sweet and dries very well so you can stack cookies. I used the best rolled sugar cookies from this site- another winner.

Perfect frosting for sugar cookies. My daughter had a blast decorating with this frosting. I put some in a zip lock bag and cut a small hole at one corner and let her decorate the cookies. This is a keeper!

This is the best recipe I've ever found for cookie frosting. I had some frosting left over after making cookies about a week ago, so I put it in an air tight container and stored it in the refrigerator. Today I microwaved the left over frosting for 9 seconds on power level 2 and PRESTO I had perfect spreadable frosting again.

This icing has a great taste, but is a little greasy. I did half shortening and half butter to try to fix that, but maybe it made it worse?

very light and fluffy! And Easy! I, too, had to add more milk to get it to mix properly. Before I did, it was way too dry.

I used this recipe on "Michelle's Soft Sugar Cookies". It was pretty good. I like the fact that this frosting is made with butter instead of shortening - it doesn't have that greasy aftertaste. I just didn't think it spread very well. It seemed sort of like a chore to frost my cookies - something I usually like doing. BUT it tastes good, I will use it again.
