Easy Shortening Cake Frosting

Ingredients:

3 1/2 cups confectioners sugar
1 cup spectrum shortening
2 tbsp coconut milk
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Directions:

1. Combine all ingredients on low speed.
2. Once combined, beat on medium speed for a full 5 minutes.

Frosting can be piped for decorating or just frosting a cake. You can thin it a little with more milk for easier spreading if just frosting.

I added a bit of cocoa powder for the brown ears and food coloring for the tongue for this cake.

Here's my recipe for the cake:
