I made this recipe with my niece and nephew and it turned out wonderful. They had so much fun doing it and licking the bowl afterwards. It is wonderful :)

 Gina (Texas) says:
I think 3 cups is a little too much sugar for this recipe. It was not lumpy and spread well on the cake, but the sugar overpowers the vanilla. I think I will try cutting down on the sugar and maybe adding in some more butter?

 Katrina (Manitoba) says:
for anyone saying that there was too much sugar or it didnt have enough milk and stuff, it does say "about" 2 Tbsp ! so dont get mad at the recipe just because you need to add a little more ! :P

Extremely delish & super easy!! Used my KitchenAid mixer & beat for 3-5 minutes. Came out soo fluffy & light.. Did add an extra tbsp of milk also.. the more milk the fluffier it will be. FOOLPROOF!!

 Fatima (California) says:
i made this and it was great. the only thing is that i put 1 cup of sugar instead of 3 cups and put some cream cheese and then i hit the jackpot.

 Icing Master (Maryland) says:
Not too bad. I've tried many online recipes and this one is pretty simple. Just make sure to use more milk, a dabble of extra vanilla and a pinch more of sugar. "Play it by eye!"

 Jayne (Washington) says:
This recipe is so fast and simple to make! I reduced the amount of vanilla to 1 tsp. and added a little bit more than 1/4 tsp. of peppermint extract and it was amazing! If it is lumpy, add a bit more milk and beat it with a whisk or fork. Excellent!
