Peanut Butter Frosting

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup room temperature soft butter
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter (I used JIF)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 cups powdered sugar, sifted
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons non-fat milk

Preparation

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl with a hand mixer, cream together the butter and peanut butter about one minute. Scrape the sides of the bowl and mix again another 30 seconds.

Add the vanilla in mix to incorporate.

About 1/2 cup at a time, add in the sugar alternating with the heavy cream first then non-fat milk. You may not need all the milk. Scrape the sides after each addition of powdered sugar. Add only enough milk until you get the consistency you want.

Mix together another 1-2 minutes. Do not over mix.
