This is very thin...more like a glaze, not a frosting. I ended up adding 3 cups of conf. sugar and some Crisco to lessen the strong butter flavor. This would be great on cinnamon rolls as is I think!

Yeah that's why i shouldn't really call it bakery-style frosting. I can't imagine using it on everything UNLESS you add 3 cups of xxx sugar. but i love the glaze-ness and the butter flavor myself so i leave the recipe as is.
Thanks for trying it!
