Regular White Icing (Add Butter to Make Buttercream Icing)

Description: I love this icing with the White Cake recipe that I posted. This is not a thick icing like those you buy. This also came from my sister-in-law. We use this for lots of different baked goods that require icing.

Ingredients:

• 2 cups powdered sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
• 1/2 teaspoon milk, add more to desired consistancy
• 1 dash salt (may substitute or omit)
• 1/4 cup butter (for the Buttercream Icing you would add the butter to the recipe)

Steps:

1. Mix powdered sugar and vanilla.
2. Add milk teaspoon by teaspoon until desired consistency.
3. Dash salt.
4. Note: Do NOT pour in the milk.
5. Trust me.
6. Do this as instructed, or you will have to keep adding sugar until you get a good consistency, and then you will end up with enough icing to cover surplus amout of cakes!
7. (If you are icing everything in your home, then go right ahead).
