Phyllis Fluffy Frosting Recipe

A family heirloom recipe passed down from Aunt Phyllis! This incredibly light and airy whipped frosting is surprisingly easy to make (though a stand mixer is recommended!). Not overly sweet, it's the perfect complement to chocolate cake, but delicious on anything! The secret? Whipping for a full 20 minutes to achieve that perfect, set texture. (Heavy cream, half & half, or melted chocolate are a no-no – they'll ruin the magic!) For a decadent chocolate version, stir in unsweetened cocoa powder at the end.
