I found it online and it sounds great, just wondering if you can decorate with it? It has instant pudding, milk, crisco, and confectioner sugar, and vanilla. I'm thinking with the crisoc in it you could pipe?

I did try a diabetic one that used pudding and heavy cream and conf sugar, I don't remember the rest of the ingredients, but it piped beautifully. It did have cracks in some spots as it dried though. So it would have been fine if it was eaten close to the time it was decorated.

What's the recipe? Sounds like it would mellow out the sweetness of buttercream!

That's what I'm thinking! Maybe this recipe mixed in with a buttercream?

3 or 4 oz instant pudding
1c milk
2/3 c crisco
1/2 c powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla

Beat pudding and milk, refrigerate. Mix crisco, sugar and vanilla, beat well for 5 mns. Combine with pudding mixture.

Hmm sounds like a really thin icing. 1 cup milk, only 1/2 cup powdered sugar? Even with the pudding, I don't think it would be thick enough to do anything with.
