My mother got this recipe from her sister Viv, don't know where she got it, but I love it. It is not too sweet, is soooo creamy smooth. I always loved it when mom made it on a cake for strawberries. I still use it, and love it on a Butter Pecan Cake, I am often asked to bring that for a desert. This frosting would go great on any flavor.For those of us who don't always want a sugary frosting, you can't get better than this. Ingredients:
1/4 cup flour |
1 cup milk |
1/2 cup butter |
1/2 cup shortening |
1 cup sugar |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
Directions:
1. Cook the flour and milk SLOWLY over LOW heat.
2. Stir constantly until the mixture thickens.
3. Put in refrigerator to chill.
4. Then blend the butter, shortening, sugar, and vanilla in mixer till well mixed.
5. Then add the cool, flour mixture.
6. Beat for several minutes til fluffy. Make sure to mix well. It should be a very creamy texture.
