Butter Cream Icing (Buttercream Frosting) Recipe #261024
I use Recipe #95416 when I'm decorating a cake but we like this version on brownies, cookies or undecorated cakes. I cut the recipe in half for brownies. Goes really well on Recipe #2496. Freezes well also. (If you have leftovers, put it between graham cracker for a delicious snack or dessert. My kids love it that way!)
12 min | 12 min prep
3 1/2 cups
- 1 cup real butter, no substitute
- 1 1/2 teaspoons clear vanilla extract
- 1 pinch salt (optional)
- 5 cups confectioners' sugar
- 2-3 tablespoons milk
- Cream butter and then add vanilla and optional salt. (To cut the sweetness I usually sprinkle some salt in the vanilla, so it will dissolve.).
- Add sugar a cup at a time beating on medium speed. Add milk 1 Tbls. at a time and beat on high until completely blended and desired consistency.
