Whipped Frosting
Report
This Whipped Frosting tastes just like the lightly sweetened version you'll find in most grocery store bakeries. This recipe makes around 4 cups of frosting - plenty for a two layer cake!

Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 cups butter softened
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
- Add the milk and flour to a medium sauce pan over medium heat and whisk well. Keep whisking over medium to high heat, until the mixture begins to thicken to the consistency of a gravy or pudding. Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the mixture to cool.
- While the flour and milk mixture is cooking, beat together the butter and sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer. Beat well, at least 5 minutes. Make sure sugar and butter is well combined or your frosting will be a bit grainy. Beat in the vanilla until combined.
- Add the cooled flour mixture to the bowl and beat together until light and fluffy.
- Use frosting immediately or, if you prefer a stiffer frosting, refrigerate for 30 minutes before use.
Notes
- For bright white frosting, use clear vanilla. If you'll be coloring the frosting, regular vanilla is fine.
- To color the frosting, add food coloring in when combining the flour mixture and butter mixture.
- We use salted butter in this recipe as it's what we always have on hand. If using unsalted butter, add 1/4 teaspoon of salt to the recipe.
