Sweet Revenge ''Pure'' Buttercream

This recipe for delicious buttercream is courtesy of Marlo Scott of Sweet Revenge.

Ingredients

Makes enough for 24 cupcakes (actually, I cut this recipe in half and it was enough for 24 cupcakes.)

1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
6 tablespoons vegetable shortening
10 cups (from about two and a half 1-pound boxes) confectioners' sugar
1/2 cup milk
2 tablespoons Mexican vanilla

Directions

In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together butter and shortening. Add sugar, and beat to combine. Add milk and vanilla, and beat until well combined.

This is from the Martha Stewart Show. Very yummy!
