Ingredients
Amount
Ingredient
1 cup
butter, unsalted and room temperature
1/2 cup
crisco (shortening)
1 teaspoon
lime zest
1 teaspoon
lime juice
1/2 teaspoon
lemon zest
1/2 teaspoon
orange zest
3/4 teaspoon
real orange extract
1 teaspoon
real lemon extract
2 teaspoons
Mountain Dew soda pop
2 Tablespoons
sweetened condensed milk
1 1/2 – 2 lbs
powdered sugar (3/4 bag)
Directions
In stand mixer, cream butter with crisco till smooth. Next add in extracts, zests, Mountain Dew, and condensed milk. Beat till creamy on med/high speed. Reduce speed to lowest setting (place clean dish towel over mixer – keeps sugar dust from getting all over everything). Slowly add in powered sugar, approx 1c at a time, beating till mixed. Use approx. 3/4 full of the 2lb bag. Can add more powered sugar if desired. This makes a nice spreadable frosting, perfect for filling and piping. Store any left over frosting in refrigerator. Bring to room temperature and stir to re-fluff.
