Mare'S Most Delicious Icing

1. 1

   beat for a full 10 minutes( very important) the following 3 ingredients: butter or margarine, crisco, granulated sugar (or use 1 cup packed brown sugar for a maple icing).

2. 2

   heat milk in microwave till very hot (not boiling).

3. 3

   while beating. add hot milk to sugar and butter mixture very slowly.(I mean about 1/8 of a cup at a time -- all the while beating it well --

   after all of the milk has been beaten in, beat in vanilla extract.

5. 5

   this is delicious (the brown sugar icing is wonderful with chocolate cake especially good with butter pecan or spice cake).
