Marissa's Orgasmic Butter Cream Icing

Ingredients:

1/2 cup softened butter
1 teaspoon clear vanilla
1 pound confectioners' sugar
3 tablespoons cream/milk

Directions:

In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat together the softened butter and vanilla. Gradually add the sugar alternately with the
milk. If icing isn't thin enough for your purpose (surprisingly,there are actual cases where thickness can be undesirable and this
could be one of them) add more cream/milk a teaspoon at a time until you reach your desired consistency.

Remember heat can be butter cream's bane or buddy. Slather this on a layer cake and head to a picnic and you might generate a baking
debacle of gigantic proportions your family and friends will be talking about for years to come. Or take a lead from Jason in "The
Cake Babe" and find new and creative uses for the sweet delight. Hey folks, it wasn't called 'orgasmic' until he got his hands on
it. . .and a whole lot more!

Frosts 2 layers, 2 dozen cupcakes or one 13 x 9 cake

Thanks to M.A. Ellis!
