This is my go-to recipe to make a quick and easy frosting to throw over a simple cake. Couldn't be easier. If you make two loaf size cakes, double the recipe and just use a 1 lb. sugar box and you won't even need to measure!

The reference to "soft butter" would seem to have meant "softened butter", not the type of butter substitute which is always soft and speadable. And never gets firm.
