I am rating this 4 stars because first, it tastes good and the consistency is good. It also smells delicious while baking. It also receives this rating because it requires *no butter* and *no oil*. The ingredient list was just what I needed tonight since I had neither. I made my own icing using powdered sugar, vanilla and milk.
