Has anyone made the baker's butter cream without freezing it? What does freezing it do?

I have a similar recipe but it calls for twice the butter and no crisco, and a cup of milk instead of water.

Freezing it makes it stiff enough to decorate with if it is room temp it is the consistancy of room temp butter.

I made this buttercream too. I froze it and of course it was too hard to even use. Next time probably would chill it not to the point of freezing it. Would that work?

I also wondered how long this icing can sit at room temperature?
