White Buttercream Icing

1 cup shortening
1 cup cocoa
3/4 teaspoon clear vanilla
1/4 teaspoon clear almond
1/4 teaspoon clear butter
Pinch salt
1/2 cup milk or water; or more
2 pounds confectioners' sugar
1/3 cup cream whip icing base


Add in order given - shortening and flavors in a heavy-duty mixer on low speed. Add milk or water and confectioners' sugar. Mix on medium speed until light and fluffy. Keep icing covered at all times. When icing is nice and fluffy, then add the rest of the powdered sugar or enough to get it to spread able consistency. Chocolate icing: Add cocoa until the butter cream icing becomes the nice rich chocolate color you want. If you want strong chocolate taste, you must add more cocoa.
