Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

In a large bowl, with an electric beater on medium speed, cream the butter and confectioners' sugar until light and fluffy.

Awesome Breakfast Casserole

I found the first act to be engaging---taut characterizations, excellent dialogue. Unfortunately, the second act struggled to recapture the engergy of the first....What? Oh! Sorry. The breakfast casserole is great! Good entry, Mickey!
