Hey all,
so it has been A LONG time since I decorated a cake.. like 15 years to be exact lol
I used to make icing with crisco/icing sugar/vanilla/nondairy creamer.
Is there a recipe like this? but maybe with a little butter in place of all the shortening?
I need to decorated a birthday cake and really want a yummy frosting.
thanks so much!!
(or even if you have an even better recipe that would be great as well!!!)

try indydebi's recipe on this site. You can use half butter half cirsco

There's a recipe on here that I LOVE, it's called "Buttercream Dream" This may be indydebi's recipe, not for sure though. Good luck!

thanks! will go look!

so I ended up doing this one..
Indydebis Crisco-Based Buttercream Icing

BUT with 1/2 butter 1/2 shortening & non dairy vanilla creamer instead of milk

turned out really yummy!
will be what I used on Sunday for the cake
Thanks again for all your help!
