Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter softened at room temperature
- 7.5 oz marshmallow fluff or marshmallow cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups powdered sugar or icing sugar
Instructions
- Begin by placing the softened butter and marshmallow fluff in a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixing fitted with a paddle attachment. Beat together on low for about 2 minutes until light, creamed and well incorporated.
- Sift half of your powdered sugar into the bowl and beat until just combined.
- Finally, sift the remaining powdered sugar into the bowl and add the vanilla. Continue beating on a low setting until creamy and smooth (see note).

Notes
- As with other American style buttercreams, you can adjust the consistency of this marshmallow frosting. To make the icing thicker, add a bit more sifted powdered sugar. If your buttercream is too thick, you can add a little milk. Add any additional liquid slowly and a small amount (no more than a tablespoon) at a time.
- Scrape down the sides of the bowl occasionally with a spatula to make sure that you have mixed everything together and not missed any pockets of powdered sugar.
