One word: Greasy. I was disappointed with this recipe. I liked that it didn't use a lot of sugar, but it did seem like a lot of butter and shortening. The frosting seemed soupy when it was done. I put it in the freezer, thinking the heat of the warm syrup had perhaps melted the shortening, and the texture did improve as it chilled. However, it was just too greasy tasting. I ended up adding in two cups of confectioner's sugar to try to balance out the greasiness. It still was just too greasy for me.
