Buttercream Frosting (for cookies or cakes)

This is the recipe that Mo always used and I can't see messing with success. 

Buttercream Frosting

½ stick Margarine or Butter
2 cups Confectionary Sugar
4 Tbsp. Milk
1 tsp. Pure Vanilla Extract (use clear vanilla if you want the frosting really white)

Cream butter and slowly add sugar. Beat well until small little balls form. Gradually add milk, beating well after each tablespoon is added. Add vanilla and beat until well blended and creamy.

Note:  When making this to use on cut-out cookies, I usually add a little almond and orange extract to compliment the cookie flavor.
