Creamy Vanilla Butter Frosting

This delightful Creamy Vanilla Butter Frosting combines the richness of butter with the sweetness of sugar and a hint of milk, creating a smooth and velvety texture perfect for cakes and cupcakes. Its classic flavor is elevated with a touch of vanilla extract, making it a versatile choice for any dessert while keeping it appealing and satisfying.

Ingredients:

• 6 cups granulated sugar
• 2 cups unsalted butter, softened

Instructions:

1. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter with an electric mixer until it is creamy and light in color.
2. Gradually add the granulated sugar, about one cup at a time, mixing well after each addition until fully incorporated.
3. Pour in the milk and add the vanilla extract and salt. Beat the mixture on medium speed until it is smooth and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.
4. If the frosting is too thick, you can add more milk, one tablespoon at a time, until the desired consistency is achieved.
5. Use immediately to frost cakes or cupcakes, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
