{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.
