Personal Notes:
I have been using this recipe for years on my pound cake, sponge cake or cupcakes. The recipe was in one of Betty Crocker's first cookbooks. This is the frosting I used on Janet's, Judy's and Karen's wedding cakes. Until I moved to PA, I also made pound cakes frosted with this recipe for Kim's children's birthday parties.
