Ingredients:





 1 1/4 c  Milk


   1/4 c  Corn starch


   2/3 c  Sugar


     1 c  Butter or substitute






 Flavour (original recipe used 1 tablespoon instant coffee, can


 substitute 1 teaspoon vanilla essence etc.)


 


 Mix 1/3 cup milk with cornstarch in bowl.  Boil rest of milk with


 sugar in saucepan. If the flavour is something that needs dissolving


 (eg the instant coffee), stir it into the milk.  Stir milk mixture


 into corn starch mixture.  Return to saucepan and boil mixture while


 stirring until thick and smooth.


 


 Take off heat and allow to cool, stirring often.  Add flavour if not


 already added.  Beat butter in large bowl until smooth.  Add


 milk-cornstarch mixture and beat well.  Makes enough to fill and top


 a 9 inch cake.
