How to Make Peanut Butter Icing Frosting For Cookies
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine 1 cup powdered sugar, 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter, 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) softened unsalted butter, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Add 2-4 tablespoons of milk, starting with 2 tablespoons and adding more as needed to achieve a thick, spreadable consistency.
- Beat well with a fork until smooth and creamy.
- If the frosting is too thick, add additional milk, 1 teaspoon at a time. If it's too thin, add 1/2 teaspoon of corn syrup at a time until desired consistency is reached.
- (Optional) Divide the frosting into separate bowls and add food coloring to create different colors.
- Spread the frosting evenly onto your cooled cookies using a butter knife or offset spatula.
- Allow the frosted cookies to dry for at least 1 hour, or longer for a thicker layer of frosting.
