{Buttercream Frosting}

This has been my go to frosting to just have around, it’s really easy and I usually have all the ingredients on hand. If you keep this covered in an air tight container it should last you for a few weeks in the refrigerator. This is great for cakes, cupcakes, brownies or to put in between graham crackers 🙂

1/2 cup shortening



1/2 cup butter, softened



1 tsp vanilla extract



4 cups powdered sugar



2 Tbs milk

In a large bowl, cream together the butter, shortening, and vanilla. Blend in the sugar, one cup at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the milk, and continue mixing until light and fluffy. Keep icing covered until ready to decorate.
