Sure---if you have a mixer,this is a great icing.
2 stick butter(not margarine)
1 cup sugar
put the butter and sugar in mixer bowl and beat until it's like whipped cream(may take 10-15 min)
While that whips ,cook and whisk 1 cup milk and 4 tablespoons flour to make a paste.(cool this mixture thoroughly)
Add the paste mixture to the butter sugar mixture a tablespoon at a time continuing to beat.Then add a teaspoon of vanilla.This is great on all cakes and cupcakes.It is like whipped cream when finished but doesn't "melt" like whipped cream.

Easy! My grandma's recipe (which I use every Xmas for decorating cookies):

1 stick softened butter
1 teaspoon of vanilla
1 large bag confectioner's (powdered) sugar
add cream/half n half/milk (any of these) to desired consistency
Start with a couple tablespoons of cream and mix with an elelctric mixer, adding more cream slowly as you mix.
YUMMMY!!
