Swiss Alpine Frosting

Does anyone have a recipe for this frosting. I learned it about 30 years ago in home-ec. I remember some of the ingredents. C&H Cane Powdered Sugar High Ratio Shortining or Crisco Bright White Vanilla Egg whites?

It was NOT cooked over the double boiler like a swiss icing.

Thanks for reading. Cheryl

Mebbee.. this is related to the institutional buttercream icing. Which look like this:Based on icing sugar as calculated by weight basis. Fine icing sugar 100 parts hot water 15 parts which you add the sifted sugar to the water mixing it to a paste. Then 40 parts each of butter and emulsified shortening is combined with

2.5 parts of skim milk powder and added to the sugar water mixture, where it is creamed until soft and light. Then you add 7.5-8 parts of egg white while creaming well. You can add the desired flavor you want . Finally you add some water (to attain the desired spreading consistency,) the amount can be variable but usually about 5 parts.You may omit or add the barest minimum if you want a stiffer icing. If you want to use Crisco which is considered a partially emulsified shortening you can use all of it so that you will obtain a really white icing.
