No-Cook Cherry Flavored Fluffy Frosting

By

This is a take-off of the famous Crisco,s Fluffy Frosting. The only difference is using almond extract in place if the vanilla. And, don't think you can use "just any" brand of shortening. It MUST be Crisco. I have tried it with others. Just doesn't work.....
