My good friend Rosario71 [here on cake central] recently shared this recipe with me. She’s tried a bunch of buttercream frosting recipes and says this is the BEST!

Homemade Buttercream Frosting

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup – Crisco shortening [lard]
    1/2 cup – Butter or Margerine
    1 tsp – clear vanilla extract [clear- otherwise the brown tint will show]
    4 cups – SIFTED powdered sugar
    2 tbsp -milk

Instructions

    Using a blender: Cream butter and Crisco shortening; Add vanilla; add sugar one cup at a time.

  1. Mix will seem thick / lumpy. Add milk until frosting is fluffy.
  2. That’s it. Enjoy.

    Sweet and has lard. Will not win healthy award.
