"Mom used this sweet frosting for all of our family's birthday cakes," recalls Barbara Jones of Tower Hill, Illinois. "Now I use it on cakes for our three preschoolers." A big batch keeps for quite a while in the refrigerator and is cheaper than canned frosting.
Ingredients:
• 2 cups shortening
• 1/2 cup powdered nondairy creamer
• 1 teaspoon almond extract
• 1 package (32 ounces) confectioners' sugar
• 1/2 to 3/4 cup water
• Food coloring, optional
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, beat the shortening, creamer and extract until smooth. Gradually beat in confectioners' sugar. Add enough water to reach desired consistency. If desired, add food coloring.
2. Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 months. Bring to room temperature before spreading.
