You Will Need (6 things)

  • 16 oz Crisco Butter Shortening make sure its all vegetable!!!
  • 3 lbs Powdered Sugar
  • ½ cup Luke Warm Water
  • 2 Egg White
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Flavoring
  • 1 ½ tsp Salt

Steps (2 steps, 15 minutes)

  1. 1

    in a large bowl, beat the first 3 ingredients on low speed until they are smooth. this might take a little while. be prepared for a big big mess the powdered sugar goes flying!

  2. 2

    add the next three ingredients. be careful to not get any yolk into the frosting. now you're going to beat this on high speed for 8 minutes. the volume will almost double. this makes enough to frost and decorate a half sheet cake (12x18)
