REGULAR WHITE ICING (ADD BUTTER TO MAKE BUTTERCREAM ICING)

I love this icing with the White Cake recipe that I posted. This is not a thick icing like those you buy. This also came from my sister-in-law. We use this for lots of different baked goods that require icing.

Regular White Icing (Add Butter to Make Buttercream Icing) image

Steps:

Mix powdered sugar and vanilla.
Add milk teaspoon by teaspoon until desired consistency.
Dash salt.
Note: Do NOT pour in the milk.
Trust me.
Do this as instructed, or you will have to keep adding sugar until you get a good consistency, and then you will end up with enough icing to cover surplus amout of cakes!
(If you are icing everything in your home, then go right ahead).

Ingredients

2 cups powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon milk, add more to desired consistancy
1 dash salt (may substitute or omit)
1/4 cup butter (for the Buttercream Icing you would add the butter to the recipe)

Steps:

In a large bowl, combine sugar, shortening, water and vanilla. Beat on low speed to combine, then beat on medium speed for a full five minutes. It won't look like Icing at first, but keep the mixer going for a full five minutes, and then you're done!
Note: If you're not using this for decorating, but just for icing the cake, thin the icing by adding 3 tbs. of corn syrup, or water to the icing.
