Ingredients
– 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
– 4 cups powdered sugar
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 2-3 tablespoons heavy cream or milk
Instructions
1. In a large bowl, beat the softened butter with a hand mixer or stand mixer until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
2. Gradually add the powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time, beating well after each addition.
3. Mix in the vanilla extract and 2 tablespoons of heavy cream or milk. If the frosting is too thick, add an additional 1 tablespoon of cream or milk.
4. Beat the frosting for an additional 2-3 minutes until it’s light, creamy, and spreadable.
Notes
– For a thicker frosting, use less cream or milk. For a thinner, more spreadable consistency, add more.
– This frosting can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
– Try adding a pinch of salt or almond extract for a flavor twist.
