"My favorite frosting. I use this recipe but flavor with lemon, using lemon juice instead of the milk, and omitting the vanilla. My grandkid's favorite!MY favorite is almond flavoring."

"Some recipe calls for unsalted butter is that what to use for this or regular butter"

"Keeping this one on hand for all my cakes. My daughter made it with coffee extract for chocolate cupcakes and it was out of this world"

"Loved it, thank you"

"If you devolve about 1/2 teaspoon of salt in the milk or water when making icing it will cut the sweetness."

"I chose to make the peanut butter flavor and used 7 Tbsps of 1% milk and only 3 cups of sugar and that was too sugary for me. I think next time, I will use a bit more peanut butter and 2 cups of sugar. Overall, it was very yummy"

"Ever notice how the 5 star ratings always start out great recipe or so easy, yet they change a half dozen of the steps?"

"I liked it. I made the original vanilla flavor. It was a nice texture for cake frosting. I also used it for piping decorations. I wish it were not so sweet, but I suppose excessively sweet is a given with buttercream."

"This recipe is AMAZING!! But i did make a few adjustments so ill write out the recipe i used.Instead of 4 1/2 cups of sugar i used 2 cups. And i only used 2 tablespoons of milk. I also used ,instead of vinllia, i used raspberry flavor and it tuned out great. I hope this review was useful! :)"

"I followed the instructions, but my icing came out liquidy and runny! It did, however, taste Delicious. I only used 5 tablespoons of milk."

"I found this very simple, just what I wanted, simple. I used the 4 cups of sugar, plus added Hershey's unsweetened cocoa and the special dark cocoa, just added to taste. I also made my own powered sugar with my nutra-bullet because i didn't have any powered sugar. Not bad at all, sweet though. I then made my version of Reese's, added peanut butter to some of the frosting and made chocolate peanut butter frosting. Not bad."

"To those who found the frosting to be gritty, make sure to use pure cane sugar. Many cheaper/store brands are beet sugar, which always produces a gritty frosting for me."

"Looking for a good recipe and i found it"

"Perfect"

"Yes, this an easy and quick frosting. However, I found it very sweet!"
