Steps:
- 1. Whisk together the flour and milk in a small saucepan.
- 2. Stirring constantly over med-low heat, cook to a thick paste. Let cool completely.
- 3. Cream together the sugar and butter until light and fluffy.
- 4. Beat in the vanilla.

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients. This will result in a more flavorful frosting. Always use dairy products like butter and milk that are cold.
- Cook the frosting over medium heat, stirring constantly. This will prevent the frosting from curdling or burning. Be patient and stir until the frosting thickens enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon, about 5-7 minutes.
- Let the frosting cool slightly before using. This will help it to set and become more stable. You can place the frosting in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes to speed up the cooling process.
- Use the frosting to top your favorite cakes, cupcakes, or cookies. You can also use it as a sandwich spread or as a dip for fruit or pretzels.
