Butter Cream Decorating Frosting. Great fluffy sweet yet not too sweet frosting. Texture and taste are wonderful. This was handed down from my grandmother who cooked for all the area farmers on sundays. It is excellent for cookies or cakes.

This frosting is perfect for cupcakes! One batch generously frosts 24 without skimping. FYI 3 3/4 cups confectioners sugar = 1 lb.
