2 lb. bag confectioners' sugar
1/2 c. warm water
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tbsp. vanilla extract
3/4 c. Crisco shortening

Sift sugar in large bowl. Add salt, shortening, vanilla and small amount of water. Beat on high, adding more water as you beat. Continue beating for 7 to 10 minutes. If icing appears too stiff, add a small amount of water and continue beating. This icing freezes very well, if any is left over.
