Answer 6

Lets see. I use milk (1 tbs) Butter (1/4 cup) Vanilla (1 tsp) Powdered sugar (2 cup +). In order to have a frosting that is going to make roses, shapes, etc. add more powdered sugar to thicken. To thin, use more milk.

I think this will work, I use it every once in a while when i want to save on icing.

EDIT: This doesn't make a whole lot.

Answer 7

1 lb. confectioners' sugar
