Mom's Butter-Cream Frosting...

My mom has been making this frosting for cakes in our family for years. I absolutely despise frosting... but this is so yummy. I'm not a fan of sugary frostings, and this one is smooth and light compared the the canned types at the grocery stores. It is extremely simple to make.



Ingredients:
1/2 cup softened butter
3/4 cup shortening
1/4 cup warm milk (must be warmed)
2 cups powdered sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Prep:
~Soften butter
~Add all ingredients to a bowl
~Beat with hand mixer till mixed thoroughly and smooth
~Whatever type of cake you have made, spread over cake while warm still and let cool. Then add another layer of frosting once it is cooled.

 Add all ingredients to a bowl
 Mix together till smooth
 Spread over cake
