Beware with this recipe- There are a lot of errors in it, and apparently I am unable to delete it. only edit it. The recipe was from Simply Delicious - A cookbook made from Herberger's Employee Family Recipes. It was submitted by Rosemary Anderson of Billings, Montana. She noted that it is best to double the frosting recipe. However, the recipe was originally missing the sugar, baking soda, and salt in the ingredient list (but were mentioned in the directions) so I added them based on what I think would work. In addition, where to put in the 1 cup butter is not mentioned. So please, use this recipe at your own risk. Thank you.
