Notes

• sometimes use canned (evaporated) milk
• don't use fat free milk
• use at least 2% milk
• cream or 1/2 and 1/2 works best for milk
• any milk will work if you use a little butter or margarine to substitute creaminess ; about 1 tsp or so
• always have powdered sugar handy in case consistency isn't right for spreading
• it should not run off cookie
• remember to stir frosting as you go, it hardens a bit
• i don't use a mixer either ; "beat" and whip by hand
