Decorator's Icing

This is Nanny's famous icing recipe for cake decorating. Everyone always loves this recipe!
1 1/2 cups shortening
1 box confectioner's sugar
1 egg white or substitute with meringue powder or powdered egg whites
pinch of salt
2 tsp. flavoring

Cream shortening. Add half the box of sugar. Add egg white, salt and flavoring. Cream together well, then add remaining sugar. Mix well, then let mix on high for 5 minutes. I normally double this recipe when I make it.
