BUTTER FROSTING

Fay Bailey, Recipe #1

2 cups sugar
½ c of milk
1 stick butter
touch of vanilla

Bring all ingredients to a rolling boil, cook 2 to 3 minutes.
Take from heat, beat until it gets a little firm, put on cake while still a little runny,

Bake a devils food cake in 5 thin layers, then put on the butter frosting.

So very good, doesn’t last very long.
This recipe came from my mother-in-law about 45 years ago.
Our family has always enjoyed it.
