FLUFFY PEANUT BUTTER FROSTING



Fluffy Peanut Butter Frosting image

This frosting is amazing, especially with chocolate cupcakes! Creamy, smooth and fluffy. I recommend you do not use margarine, as it makes it a little greasy. Make sure your butter is softened, not melted, and not just at room temp. Leave it out for an hour or so before using. Works well for piping. If you are piping, or like lots of frosting, this will frost about 18 cupcakes. If you spread it on, you might get 24. Enjoy! From Allrecipes.

FLUFFY PEANUT BUTTER FROSTING RECIPE - (2.7/5)



Fluffy Peanut Butter Frosting Recipe - (2.7/5) image

Provided by BobLongo

Number Of Ingredients 4

1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup creamy peanut butter
3 tablespoons milk, or as needed
2 cups confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Prep 10 m Ready In 10 m Place the butter and peanut butter into a medium bowl, and beat with an electric mixer. Gradually mix in the sugar, and when it starts to get thick, incorporate milk one tablespoon at a time until all of the sugar is mixed in and the frosting is thick and spreadable. Beat for at least 3 minutes for it to get good and fluffy.

Tips:

  • Use a high-quality peanut butter: This will ensure that your frosting is rich and flavorful. Look for a peanut butter that is made with 100% peanuts and has no added sugar or salt.
  • Cream the butter and peanut butter together until light and fluffy: This will help to incorporate air into the frosting, making it light and fluffy. Be sure to cream the butter and peanut butter together for at least 2-3 minutes, or until the mixture is pale and fluffy.
  • Add the powdered sugar gradually: Adding the powdered sugar all at once can make the frosting too thick and dense. Instead, add it gradually, one cup at a time, until the frosting reaches the desired consistency. If the frosting is too thick, add a little bit of milk or cream. If the frosting is too thin, add more powdered sugar.
  • Use an electric mixer: Using an electric mixer will help you to cream the butter and peanut butter together until light and fluffy, and it will also help you to incorporate the powdered sugar gradually. If you don't have an electric mixer, you can cream the butter and peanut butter together by hand, but it will take a little bit longer.
  • Chill the frosting before using: Chilling the frosting will help it to set and firm up. This will make it easier to spread on your cake or cupcakes.

Conclusion:

Peanut butter frosting is a delicious and versatile frosting that can be used on a variety of cakes, cupcakes, and other desserts. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you like it sweet and creamy or rich and nutty, there is a peanut butter frosting recipe out there for you. So next time you are looking for a frosting that is sure to please everyone, give peanut butter frosting a try.
