Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter room temperature (two full sticks)
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 3 cups powdered sugar
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, or using a stand mixer and paddle attachment, beat the butter and peanut butter together until it is smooth and creamy.
- Add in the vanilla, salt, milk, and about half of the powdered sugar, mixing on low to medium speed for about 30 seconds.
- Next, add in the remaining half of the powdered sugar, and beat on medium to high speed until it is well blended and creamy.
- Using a spatula, scrape the sides of the bowl to get all of the ingredients combined into the frosting.
- Use a frosting spatula to frost a cake or piping bag to frost cupcakes. I used a Wilton 2D frosting tip.
Notes
- This recipe will frost 12-24 cupcakes, 2- 8 inch round or 9 inch round cakes.
- Be sure to let the butter get to room temperature, or it won’t be as smooth.
- If you want to pipe a design, chill the frosting for about 30 minutes. You can also add one Tablespoon of powdered sugar at a time while mixing, until the frosting reaches your desired thickness.
