''That's the Best Frosting I've Ever Had''

Ingredients:
5 Tablespoons Flour
1 cup Milk
1 teaspoon Vanilla
1 cup Butter
1 cup Granulated Sugar (not Powdered Sugar!)

Directions:
Bake your favorite chocolate cake and let it cool.
In a small saucepan, whisk flour into milk and heat,
stirring constantly, until it thickens. You want it to be
very thick, thicker than cake mix, more like a brownie
mix is. Remove from heat and let it cool to room
temperature. (If I’m in a hurry, I place the saucepan
over ice in the sink for about 10 minutes or so until
the mixture cools.) It must be completely cool before
you use it in the next step. Stir in vanilla.

While the mixture is cooling, cream the butter and
sugar together until light and fluffy. You don’t want any
sugar graininess left. Then add the completely cooled
milk/flour/vanilla mixture and beat the living daylights
out of it. If it looks separated, you haven’t beaten it
enough! Beat it until it all combines and resembles
whipped cream.
