Default my buttercream frosting keeps seperating

this is a recipe I found from www.wilton.com

I've made the frosting, refrigerated till ready to use. I frosted my
cake today, but it keeps seperating when it is sitting out.

I have 10 cakes to make for a bakesale Sat, and I was hopping this
recipe would hold up to potential warm weather.

what am I doing wrong?

thanks in advance for any advice.
