List of Ingredients




1/2 cup butter, softened
4 1/2 cups confectioners' Sugar
3/4 Tsp. Vanilla ext.
1/2 Tsp. Almond ext.
6-7 Tbsp. Milk


Recipe



1.) Cream butter in mixing bowl until fluffy. Beat in confectioner's sugar 1-2 cups at a time with mixer. Add extracts.
2.) Add milk 3 Tbsp. at a time until the desired "frosting" consistency is achieved.
**This recipe can also be easily doubled and frozen- I always have a batch in the freezer!
It is also versatile and can be added to/ changed to make:
-Chocolate buttercream frosting (replace 1/2 cup of pwdr. sugar with cocoa),
-Lemon (replace milk with lemon juice and add 1 Tsp. lemon peel),
-Peanut Butter (1/2 Cup peanut butter instead of regular butter)
-Peppermint (Replace Vanilla ext. with peppermint)
