Vegan Fluffy Buttercream Frosting

I got this recipe from www.chow.com. I needed a vegan icing recipe and this one looks very nice.

• Ready In: 8 mins
• Yields: 4 cups

Ingredients

• 1⁄2 cup  Earth Balance shortening
• 1⁄2 cup  Earth Balance margarine
• 3 1⁄2 cups icing sugar (sift if lumpy)
• 1 1⁄2 teaspoons vanilla extract (organic please)
• 1⁄4 cup soymilk (plain or plain soy creamer)

Directions

1. Beat the shortening and margarine together until fluffy. Add the sugar and beat for 3 more minutes.
2. Add the vanilla. Add the soy milk/creamer slowly. You should be left with a light fluffy frosting.
3. You can also stir in a 1/2 cup of crushed cookies, or vegan chocolate cream filled sandwich cookies.
