Mock Cream Cheese--Vinegar Frosting

  • 1/4 cup butter flavored shortening

  • 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon salt (to taste)
  • 1 tablespoons white vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons fresh water
  • 2 cups powdered sugar

  1. Combine all of the ingredients in a medium-sized bowl. I use a rubber spatula or sturdy fork to avoid clumps. Mix until smooth and thick.

  2. If the frosting is too thick then thin it by adding 1/4-teaspoon of water at a time, until it's the consistency your prefer.

Notes

  1. This frosting is easy to prepare and has a pleasant tangy flavor. If you prefer your frosting to be tarter then use 1-1/2 tablespoons of both vinegar and water.

  2. I feel this frosting is best on spicy cakes like gingerbread, carrot cake, cinnamon cake, spice cake, apple-spice cake etc. It makes an interesting contrast to chocolate cake and might be worth trying if you like unusual combinations. Makes enough to frost the top of an 8 or 9-inch cake. Double the recipe to have enough for a layer cake.

 And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.  Use hospitality one to another without grudging.  As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.--1 Peter 4:8-10
