The recipe I have for buttercream turns hard on the outside when I don't cover it with a cake carrier. Does anyone have a recipe that stays soft? When I put the icing on a heavy cake (14" round double layer) it cracks. One of my friends said her kids liked the "crunchy" frosting! HELP!!!

This is the buttercream recipe that I use. It doesn't crust and tastes awesome. I got it off of the sugarcraft website.
2 C butter
2 C shortening
2 T vanilla (or other flavorings)
2 lbs. powdered sugar
I usually make a double batch in my stand mixer and I also reduce the butter a little bit sometimes and it still works well. Everyone loves this frosting. Good luck
