SWEET MILK AND SUGAR ICING (FROSTING)



Sweet Milk and Sugar Icing (Frosting) image

If you like frosting so sweet that it will gag you, then give this one a try. It uses 4 ingredients always on hand. The sweet milk in the title just lets you know it doesn't use buttermilk or sour milk. My family likes this on yellow cake or white cake, and to sandwich together teacakes. A word of advice...don't try to make this frosting if it is raining...it will NEVER get hard. And make sure to boil it the full 90 seconds, so that the icing isn't grainy.

Time 20m

Yield 2 cups, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup milk, divided
3 teaspoons flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup vegetable shortening, room temperature
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine, room temperature
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vanilla

Steps:

Continue to whisk and increase heat to medium. Bring mixture to a boil and continue to whisk for one minute. Remove from heat and transfer to a bowl. Place plastic wrap over top to prevent a 'skin' from forming. Let cool completely (may place in refrigerator).
  • When mixture is cool, combine butter or margarine and shortening in a large mixing bowl. Beat well till combined. Add flour/sugar/milk mixture along with salt and vanilla and beat well.

Tips:

  • For best results, use fresh, cold ingredients.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help incorporate air into the frosting, making it smooth and creamy.
  • Add the milk and flavoring one tablespoon at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help prevent the frosting from becoming too thin or runny.
  • If the frosting is too thick, add a little more milk. If it's too thin, add a little more powdered sugar.
  • Use the frosting immediately or store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • When ready to use, bring the frosting to room temperature for about 30 minutes before spreading it on your baked goods.

Conclusion:

Sweet milk and sugar icing is a versatile and delicious frosting that can be used on a variety of baked goods, from cakes and cupcakes to cookies and brownies. It's easy to make and can be customized with different flavors and colors to match your dessert. Whether you're a seasoned baker or just starting out, sweet milk and sugar icing is a great option for adding a touch of sweetness and sophistication to your next dessert.
