POWDERED SUGAR FROSTING
___ Powdered sugar
___ Milk

I have a sheet of these today-to-become raisin bars cooling now, which
I would like to frost later, though with best instruction for the
frosting ingredients' various amounts. In advance of response, I thank
you so much!

When I make icing I always use a whole 1 lb. box of
powdered sugar, 1 stick butter, enough liquid to make
it the right consistency - a couple of tablespoons or
more depending. I would use 1 tsp. vanilla for vanilla
frosting with 1 lb. of powd. sugar.

I most often make strawberry or orange in
which case I use orange juice for the liquid in the approp.
amount and in the case of strawberry I clean, slice, and
sugar the strawberries and let sit overnight and then
just throw some in with their juice and beat with the
mixer. The strawberries get broken up and contribute
to the total liquid.
