Light Vanilla Frosting
This frosting works well for cupcakes, cakes, or cookies.
Ingredients:
3/4 cup powdered sugar
1/4 cup Splenda? sweetener or other sugar alternative for baking
2 tablespoons less-fat margarine with added plant sterols (such as Take Control brand)
1 1/2 teaspoons fat-free half-and-half, whole milk, or low-fat milk
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
About 8 drops food coloring (for colored frosting)
Preparation:
Add powdered sugar, Splenda?, margarine, milk and vanilla to a small mixing bowl and beat on medium speed to blend until smooth. This will take a few minutes, because the Splenda? takes a while to dissolve.
Add food coloring, if desired. About 8 drops will do.
Frost your goodies.
Yield:
About 2/3 cup of frosting (enough for 12 medium sugar cookies

I'm sure I saw one in allrecipes.com but I can't find it
Make it a WHIPPED CREAM frosting instead.... REALLY GOOD, very light and fluffy AND you can use reduced fat whipping cream to create it----
I have no idea sweetie. I don't eat chocolate cause it upsets my stomach. If I could cook worth a damn any more (my hands shake too much to measure anything) I would make my own stuff too and vanilla and lemon are my favorites.
no I don't, you could probably find low fat frosting at the store
