How to Make Diana's Icing
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) of softened shortening and 1/2 cup of creamer using an electric mixer on low speed until light and fluffy.
- Gradually add 2 cups of powdered sugar, mixing on low speed until well combined.
- Add 1/4 cup of water, then carefully add 2 more cups of powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon of almond extract, and a pinch of salt.
- Beat on medium speed until thoroughly combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Increase the mixer speed to high and beat for 3 minutes. Check the consistency.
- For a thicker icing, add powdered sugar 1/2 cup at a time, mixing well after each addition until desired consistency is reached.
- Once the desired consistency is achieved, beat on high speed for an additional 5 minutes to create a light and fluffy texture.
