Frosting for sugar cookies

I got this recipe from Cindy Himes, a girl who used to be in our ward. She has got cookie making down to a science and I just loved how her cookies tasted, so this is the best recipe I have found to date.

2/3 C butter
1 lb. bag of powdered sugar
2 t vanilla
3 T Milk-more or less

Butter should be at room temp. so it is easier to work with. Use electric mixer to mix butter & vanilla. Then add powdered sugar 1 cup at a time and beat. Add milk a tablespoon at a time to determine how much you need. Beat to desired consistency and then add food coloring.

I double this recipe for one batch of sugar cookies.
