Mom's Frosting

Makes great frosting for sugar cookies. This recipe makes a lot, so I usually make half or even a third of it.

2 lb powdered sugar (4 c per pound)
3/4 c crisco shortening (not liquid)
2/3 c milk
1 t salt
1 t vanilla
1 t almond flavoring

Beat together crisco, salt, flavor and a little of the sugar. Slowly add milk and sugar alternately, beating well. You can not beat it too much. Add more or less milk depending on the consistency you want.
