Amber's Birthday Cake Frosting


I love, love, love homemade frosting. I started with a basic butter cream recipe and tweaked it through trial and error. I think it is pretty good. I have probably eaten half a can of shortening worth of frosting in the last week!
1- 320z bag powdered sugar
2 cups regular shortening
1 Tbsp vanilla
6-8 Tbsp milk
Mix and add food coloring if desired. You can add more or less milk for desired consistency.
