Killer Cake Frosting

Ingredients:

1 1/2 -1 2/3 c. crisco

4 c. powdered sugar

2 Tbsp. corn syrup

1 tsp. clear vanilla

1 tsp. almond (can be liberal)

1/4 c. milk

optional lemon juice to taste, adds a yummy zing!

yeilds: a lot

use that good ol' kitchen aide and mix it all together.

perfect for piping and layering.

will not be smooth like fondant, but using a icing spatula wet with warm water, it smooths nicely.

add cocoa powder and nix the lemon juice for chocolate icing.

This is the frosting I used on Emalee's wedding cake I made 2 summers ago.

(Two summers ago?! Woo Em & Lance!!!)
