This is a great decorator's frosting that can easily be adjusted, depending on the nature of your cake. I made mine as follows: One and half cups Crisco, 1/2 cup butter (softened), 2 t. vanilla extract (clear), 1/2 t. butter flavoring, 2 lbs. powdered sugar (8 cups), 6 T. heavy cream, and a pinch of salt. I added the extra salt to balance out the heavy sweetness of the sugar. If you want a stiffer frosting (suitable for making roses and other decorations), just reduce the amount of liquid.
