I had some trouble getting the frosting to the right consistency. It was a bit too thick at first, but I was able to thin it out with some milk.

This frosting is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still very good.

I'm not usually a fan of buttercream frosting, but this recipe changed my mind. It's so light and fluffy, and it doesn't have that greasy aftertaste that some buttercream frostings have.
