Add frosting into a bag to pipe. If too soft, place in the fridge for a few minutes. If too hard after leaving in the fridge, let set on the counter until the right consistency.
You can spread across your baked goods or pipe, either works! You can also add food coloring to achieve different colors of frosting.
