I have been asked by many of you for this recipe, so I decided to post it for everyone! This is a delicious, not too sweet whipped frosting. It can be used to frost cakes very easily and smooth-and you can also pipe and decorate with it too! But best of all…it is sooooo good!!!
Creamy & Tasty Whipped Frosting
Ingredients
- ⢠½ cup salted butter
⢠½ cup veg shortening
⢠1 lb confec. sugar
⢠1/4 tsp. salt
⢠1 tsp. vanilla
⢠3-4 oz heavy whipping cream
⢠1 tbsp. meringue powder
Instructions
Cream shortening and butter until fluffy.
- Add sugar, and cream until well blended.
- Add salt, vanilla, meringue powder, and whipping cream.
- Blend on low until moistened.
- Beat on high until icing is fluffy.
- (You can add more confec. sugar, or
- less whipping cream for a stiffer consistency.)
- MUST REFRIGERATE-will keep for up to 5 days.

I can’t imagine that it is low in calories, but you will love it anyway!!!

Can you tell me approximately how much this recipe will make? I’ve got to do 2 dozen cupcakes and this recipe sounds TOO yummy!!

I made this yesterday for a birthday cake I made, and it was absolutely yummy!! the problem I had, though, is that it did not crust over like other buttercream icings, so I couldn’t give it the smooth look I like. Was it just me, or does this icing not crust? I will still definitely use this recipe again!!
