This nice icing keeps its shape. It's great for piping on cut-out cookies, yet stiff enough for making flowers. It may be too sugary to mound up on cupcakes, unless of course you have a strong sweet tooth! I like using pure bourbon vanilla extract in this.
½ cup vegetable shortening
4 cups confectioners' sugar
5 tablespoons soy milk
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
Dessert
Directions
Beat the shortening and confectioners' sugar together until the shortening has been incorporated and the mixture is clumpy. Pour in the soy milk and vanilla extract; beat until smooth.
