The one I use is as follows!.!.!.

4oz butter
4oz sugar
4oz flour
2 eggs

Cream the butter and sugar together until pale and fluffy, beat the eggs in one at a time (add vanilla here if you wish) and then carefully fold in the flour being sure not to knock too much air out!.


Butter icing is dead easy too!. You just need some butter and icing sugar and cream them together until you have the right consistency and flavour!. Again, you can add vanilla or cocoa powder depending on what flavour you want!.
