Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 C. butter room temp.
  • 1/2 C. original crisco
  • 1 Tbsp. vanilla
  • 2 lb. powdered sugar
  • 3/4 C. + 2 Tbsp. heavy whipping cream
  • 1/4 C. cocoa powder
  • 1/8 tsp. salt

Instructions
 

  • 1. In a mixing bowl combine the butter and crisco. Beat until light in color. About 2 minutes.
    2.Scrape the bowl.
    3.Add powdered sugar, you can do this in cups if you want to, I pour the whole bag in, add the vanilla, the 3/4 c. cream and then put a large towel over the mixer and let it go, The towel keeps the powdered sugar from going everywhere! Mix for about a minute.
    4. Scrape the side of the bowl down. Add the cocoa powder. Then the remaining 2 Tbsp. heavy cream, let mix for another minute, until it is a milk chocolate color.
    5..Scrape the bowl again. Add a 1/8 tsp. salt. Mix for another minute.
    ENJOY!
