    Recipe



    > Vanilla Buttercream Frosting
    Makes 16 servings, about 2 cups

    3 cups powdered sugar
    1/3 cup stick margarine or butter, softened*
    1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
    1 to 2 tablespoons milk
    *It's not recommended that you use vegetable oil spreads

    1. Mix powdered sugar and margarine in medium bowl. Stir in vanilla and milk.
    2. Beat until smooth and spreadable. Frosts one 13x9" cake or fills and frosts one 8-9" two-layer cake.
    Note: To fill and frost one 8" three-layer cake, use 4 1/2 cups powdered sugar, 1/2 cup stick margarine or butter, softened, 2 teaspoons vanilla and about 3 tablespoons milk.

    > Browned Butter Buttercream Frosting
    Heat 1/3 cup butter (do not use margarine or spreads) over medium heat until light brown. Watch carefully because butter can brown and burn quickly. Cool. Substitute melted butter for softened margarine.

    > Lemon Buttercream Frosting
    Omit vanilla. Substitute lemon juice for the milk. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon grated lemon peel.

    > Maple-Nut Buttercream Frosting
    Substitute 1/2 cup maple-flavored syrup for the vanilla and milk. Stir in 1/4 cup finely chopped nuts.

    > Orange Buttercream Frosting
    Omit vanilla. Substitute orange juice for the milk. Stir in 2 teaspoons grated orange peel.

    > Peanut Butter Buttercream Frosting
    Substitute peanut butter for the margarine. Increase milk to 1/4 cup, adding more if necessary. Enjoy.
