How to Make Buttercream Frosting
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and shortening until light and fluffy. This step is key for a smooth frosting!
- Gradually add the powdered sugar, one cup at a time, beating well after each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Add the vanilla extract and salt. Beat until well combined.
- If the frosting is too thick, add milk, one teaspoon at a time, until you reach your desired consistency.
- If the frosting is too thin, add more powdered sugar, one tablespoon at a time, until it thickens.
- Once you've achieved the perfect consistency, frost your favorite baked goods and enjoy!
