VANILLA BUTTER FROSTING
Alot of recipes for a basic butter frosting usually use way too much powdered sugar, are overlly sweet, and have no flavor. So I decided make up my own recipe for perfectly sweet vanilla butter frosting. I use less powdered sugar so you can taste the delicious butter and vanilla flavors instead of just powdered sugar. I like to use this frosting to frost cupcakes with.

- On low speed gradually add powdered sugar alternating with milk, adding more if needed, until at desired consistency. Add vanilla and beat until smooth and creamy.
SILKY VANILLA BUTTER FROSTING
This is not your usual butter-cream made with powdered sugar. Butter is beaten into a flour-thickened base to make an exquisitely light and creamy frosting. Not overly sweet like those made with powdered sugar, but sweet enough to be the perfect compliment for a cake. Make sure the base is completely cooled before beating in the butter. I added in 15 minutes cooling time, but it will vary depending on conditions.

Tips:

- Bring the butter to room temperature: This will make it easier to cream together with the sugar.
- Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will incorporate air into the frosting, making it smooth and creamy.
- Add the vanilla extract and salt: These ingredients will add flavor to the frosting.
- Beat in the milk or cream one tablespoon at a time: This will help to prevent the frosting from becoming too thin.
- Use the frosting immediately or store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days: If you are storing the frosting in the refrigerator, be sure to bring it to room temperature before using it.
