Answer 1

2 sticks butter, soft

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 lbs powdered sugar

2-4 Tablespoons milk

Mix butter and vanilla on med speed of electric mixer until well blended.  Add powdered sugar 1/2 cup at a time, mixing well after each addition.  Icing will be dry looking.  Add milk and mix well.  Add more milk or sugar to reach desired consistency.  Enjoy!

Answer 2

1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened

6 to 8 cups confectioners’ sugar

1/2 cup milk

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Place the butter in a large mixing bowl. Add 4 cups of the sugar and then the milk and vanilla. On the medium speed of an electric mixer, beat until smooth and creamy, about 3-5 minutes. Gradually add the remaining sugar, 1 cup at a time, beating well after each addition (about 2 minutes), until the icing is thick enough to be of good spreading consistency. You may not need to add all of the sugar. If desired, add a few drops of food coloring and mix thoroughly. (Use and store the icing at room temperature because icing will set if chilled.) Icing can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days

Answer 5

This makes a great frosting and It's really good! I'm going to give you the whole recipe in case you ever want to try it. You can substitute another fruit for the pineapple if you like.

Pineapple Whip Cream Cake

No. 2 can crushed pineapple (2 ½ cups)

¼ cup sugar

¼ cup cornstarch

2 layers white cake (cake mix) prepared per package directions

Combine first 3 ingredients in a small saucepan. Cook over low heat until thickened, about 5 minutes. Make the 2 layer cake from a mix or using your favorite recipe. When cool, split one layer in half horizontally, making 2 layers out of one. Put one half on plate; spread with pineapple filling. Top with whole layer, top with more filling, top with final layer and put remainder of filling in the center of top of cake, leaving about 1 ½ inches around edge for frosting.

Whip Cream Frosting:

In saucepan, add 4 tbs flour and 1 cup milk. Cook and stir constantly, until thick. Cool. Cream 1 cube oleo (imperial margarine) and ½ cup shortening together. Add 1 cup sugar and 1 tsp vanilla. Cream together. Mix all together on high speed on mixer.

Frost remainder of cake with frosting (sides and top edge). If more frosting is desired it can be added between the layers as well.
