Cathy Guzik (California) says:

This is the recipe that I used to decorate because it is firmer than regular buttercream.

I use this constantly but use all butter and add 4 more tbs cream (with the milk) to get to spreading consistancy. I whip it till it is super creamy. If you want to use it for decorating, don't beat as much, just till combined as you don't want air bubbles in your pasrty bag.

Simple but delicious frosting.
