Vanilla Whipped Buttercream Frosting

My favorite frosting!
 
 
When making frosting always remember to go in order, if you don't the results will end up a mess.
 
Ingredients:
  • 3 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons whipped cream


Directions:
  1. In mixer, whisk butter and sugar on lowest speed until well blended.
  2. Mix on medium speed for about three minutes.
  3. Add cream and vanilla and continue to mix on medium speed until desired consistency. Can add addition whipped cream, to adjust taste and consistency.
Taste great, not to sweet or overpowering. Frost on cold cake for best results. Cool entire cake (or cupcake) with frosting before any additional decorating.
