  • Pour in half of the powdered sugar and stir into shortening mixture until slightly moistened.
    After stirring, beat with electric mixer until well blended.

  • Add 2 tablespoons of milk to the blended mixture and beat until thoroughly mixed.

  • Add the remaining powdered sugar and stir slightly to moisten. Beat with the mixer until well
    blended.

  • Mix in half of the remaining milk and blend. If frosting is not at a spreadable consistency,
    add the remaining milk and blend again. If the frosting is still not at the desired consistency,
    add more milk, adding a teaspoon at a time and blending with mixer after each addition. Be sure
    the frosting is not too stiff so that it will spread easily.
