Easy Vanilla Icing

by Liz

This is the best recipe for an easy vanilla icing. It is suitable for most cakes,cupcakes and biscuits and does not involve using the mixer.

The ingredients are pantry basics so I can make this icing with a moment's notice.

2 cups powdered (icing) sugar
2 tablespoons butter or margarine, softened
2 tablespoons milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla


Combine ingredients in a small bowl and mix with a fork until smooth and fluffy.

If you want chocolate icing, you can add 1 tablespoon of cocoa to the other ingredients.
