This recipe was not as good as it could have been yet it was still delicious.

omg this recipe is awsome

This recipe is great. I added a half a cup of peanut butter to it and it was so good.

Some people have complained of this being clumpy or runny. My mom made it and it was actually too firm and when she put more milk, it made it runny. However, my consistency was perfect! Also, as far as clumpy, keep it mixing for longer. I use my Kitchenaid...I'm not sure if a hand mixer will work as well.

Thank you SOOOOOOOOOOOO much! You are my hero!

A couple of modifications to make this better:
- use a little less sugar(it's way to sugary and it's not thin enough to spread as it stands).
- sift you powdered sugar first, if you are really motivated do it twice for no lumps.
- add 2 tablespoons of meringue powder (it helps with consistency and aids with piping, also helps reduce the sugar you will need). You can buy this at Sur La Table, Williams Sonoma or online at a myriad of sources.

This recipe is fabulous. Ran out of storebought so I used this and no one noticed the difference. I think I will use it next cause its easy and cheap.

Wonderful recipe - the simplest that I've found. I was actually Googling Alton Brown's recipe when this came up in the results. I'll be sure to try this out! Best of all, no raw eggs. I don't really have anything against raw eggs myself, but my parents freak out when they see me eating something with a high raw egg content. :P

Excellent and very easy recipe. It doesn't use raw eggs which makes it a great choice for a children's birthday cake. Kids should not eat raw eggs, ya know. You might have to add more milk, depending on what type of confectioners sugar you use. Some confectioner's sugar comes with cornstarch or another ingredient added, which makes it stiffer.

This was really easy and tasted so good! I like that it did not contain any shortening. Very quick and smooth! I will use this one over and over again!!

I just made this for my husband's birthday cake today as I forgot to buy store-bought icing. I am NOT a good cook, but this looked so easy I thought I'd give it a try. YUM! Turned out perfectly, and tastes amazing! I can't wait to let my husband try it tonight! Thanks!

Its delicous ! I made it on valentines day :)

Thank you, thank you, thank you! Never have I seen such an easy recipe that tastes so good.

This recipe is AWESOME!!!! It is easy, quick, and delicious!!! As a young baker, I would highly reccomend this recipe!!!

Delicious! Substituted whipping cream for milk since I had it and someone said theirs came thin. I probably used 4T of it. Then I whipped it on medium to fluff it up a bit. My boys love it -- 10 yr old said it will be "all the rage." ha-ha Thanks so much!! Very quick and easy, yummy to boot!
