Ingredients
- 1 stk (1/2 c.) margerine, softened
- 1/2 c. Shortening (Crisco)
- 1/8 tsp Salt
- 2 tsp Vanilla (preferably clear vanilla)
- 1 bag (2 lb.) confectioner's sugar
- 8 Tbsp. Warm water (more or possibly less may be needed) (up to 10)
Directions
- Cream shortening, margerine, and salt till light and fluffy. Add in the vanilla. Alternately add in confectioners sugar and warm water, beating with electric mixer till desired consistency is reached. If more water is needed, add in it only a few drops at a time. If you get it too thin, add in confectioners sugar, a Tbsp. at a time.
- This will keep for several weeks in the fridge, and will freeze indefinitely. Be sure to beat well after bringing to room temperature.
- This is just like the sugary-sweet fluffy stuff on bakery cakes. My only sister died three years ago in the middle of an asthma attack. Whenever I make this recipe, I always remember the absolutely beautiful cakes she did....
