Kathy
Henricks' Buttercream Frosting
1 1/4 cup Crisco shortening
(only use Crisco)
2 lbs. powdered sugar
1 tsp salt
1/2 cup water
2 Tbsp Karo light corn syrup
1 tsp butter flavoring
1 tsp vanilla
Beat 5 to 10 minutes with
a power mixer until very smooth. Water down a
small amount for a crumb coat if frosting a cake.
After 20 minutes (when set), frost with remainder
of frosting. When set, use paper towel or typing
paper to set desired surface texture. This is
fluffy enough to frost easily, yet stiff enough
for keeping its shape for decorating.

Salami
and Cream Cheese Wraps
miniature sweet pickles
cream cheese
sliced salami
toothpicks
Cut the miniature pickles
into fourths lengthwise, so that the pickle slices
are still roughly the same length as the salami
slices. Spread a thin layer of cream cheese on
a slice of salami, wrap around a pickle slice
and close with a toothpick.
