This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.

Add a sweet finish to your desserts with this frosting recipe, a creamy, versatile topping that can be prepared in advance and stored for in the freezer for up to 2 months.

1/3 cup shortening
4 1/2 cups sifted confectioners' sugar
1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup heavy whipping cream
Combine the shortening, 1 cup of the confectioners' sugar, vanilla, and salt in a mixing bowl. Beat on medium speed with an electric mixer until creamy and well mixed. With the mixer running, slowly add the remaining sugar alternating with the heavy whipping cream. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed. Continue to mix until the frosting is the desired consistency.
Transfer the frosting into an airtight, freezer-safe container. Freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw in the refrigerator before using.
1 batch (3 cups) of frosting is enough to frost 24 cupcakes or a two-layer, tube, 13- x 9-inch or 15- x 10-inch cake.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
