I am a volunteer for a local hospice. I made cupcakes yesterday for a patient's birthday and needed a quick frosting recipe to decorate them. This is easy, whips up quickly and ices perfectly! Feel free to adjust to your likes/needs. *You can customize the flavoring of course and even add a little more for stronger flavor...add more cream for thinner frosting...or more sugar to make it more stiff.
Ingredients & Process
1cup unsalted butter, softened
3 cups powdered sugar
1Tbs whipping cream (I'm sure substituting milk would be fine)
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp almond flavoring
In a mixing bowl, combine butter and sugar. Beat with electric mixer on low speed for 1 minute and then continue on medium speed for another 3 minutes. Add the cream and flavorings and beat for another minute. If you want to add color, stir a little in now. Otherwise, this should do it! It will be a stiff frosting, good for decorating.
