Okay, so we have, converting to standard US mesurements...

1 Stick of Butter
About 9 oz just over a cup of powdered sugar
2 tsp of hot liquid
1 tsp vanilla.

That's 1/2 oz of liquid total, it should work fine, if you're using the
right kind of sugar. Start by mixing the butter and powdered sugar
together as you would for cookie dough, then add in the liquid until you
get the right consistancy.
