As most of you know I love to bake and decorate cakes. I have a go to recipe for buttercream icing that my friend Theresa Peters gave to me. I thought I would share it here.
2 cups butter
6 tsp vanilla or other flavoring
8 Tbsp milk
7 cups icing sugar
1 Cup flour
1. Cream butter. Add vanilla, milk and stir.
2. Add icing sugar and cream well.
3. Add flour
The nice thing about this recipe is if you are looking for an icing that is not as sweet, you just increase the flour and decrease the icing sugar. If you want a thinner consistency you add more milk. I often do this after adding the flour.
