Ermine Frosting

Ermine frosting, sometimes called roux frosting or flour frosting, is made by cooking flour, sugar, and milk. Never heard of it? I hadn't either, but it's actually a super light and fluffy frosting (that does NOT taste flour-y at all) that reminds me of sweet whipped cream. You are going to love this unique frosting!

Instructions

  1. Add the flour, sugar and milk to a pan. Cook over medium heat while whisking constantly until thick like pudding, about 10 minutes.
  2. Remove from the heat and add to a heat-proof bowl or quarter sheet pan. Cover with plastic wrap so the plastic touches the top of the mixture and prevents a film from forming. Chill in the fridge for 40 minutes
  3. Add the room temperature butter to a stand mixer and whip with the whisk attachment for about 8 minutes, until the butter is light and fluffy.
  4. Add the flour mixture to the butter one scoop at a time until it is all incorporated
  5. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl and switch to the paddle attachment. Add the vanilla and salt and beat on medium-high for 10-13 minutes, until smooth and fluffy.
