I used this when I made Recipe #105594 and it was wonderful. I added the vanilla and milk in at the same time, then turned up my KitchenAid to a higher speed and whipped it really well for a few minutes. This was the best, fluffiest frosting I've ever had or made, and since it doesn't use shortening, I'm even more pleased to have this recipe! Thanks, Alia!
