Vanilla Cream Icing - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/3 cup Crisco shortening
4 cups powdered sugar
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup water

Preparation

Combine all ingredients in large mixing bowl.
Mix on medium speed with an electric mixer for 5 minutes.
If you want to tint it, the icing gel colors work best. Just add it gradually until you get the desired shade.
Icing can be stored in airtight containers at room temperature for an indefinite amount of time since there's nothing in it to go bad.
