My mom has been making this type of frosting (we call it buttercream) for years!

I had no idea canned frosting existed until I started 1st grade as I’d only ever been exposed to bakery buttercream frosting and this frosting. I know. I was a spoiled child!

Just made this for banana cupcakes. Just an fyi the first batch did separate because I over-mixed it. Then with the second batch I read Ree’s post about mix about 45 seconds. This one was great. Thanks for the recipe and the tips!!!

I just made this frosting to top off my Banana Cupcakes — I am calling them “Monkey Chow”. This frosting is very good with a light texture.
Yummy!

if you’re having trouble with this recipe, go here:
http://www.ourbestbites.com/2008/09/perfect-cupcake-frosting-and-filling.html

it’s basically the same recipe, but she includes some troubleshooting tips. she also recommends mixing it for 7-8 minutes. i tried the tasty kitchen recipe and failed miserably, but i tried it again using tips from this website, and it came out perfectly… i am in love.

this frosting is a more buttery than i expected, but it’s still absolutely awesome. i made the chocolate sheet cake cupcakes more chocolatey (about 5 tbsp of cocoa powder), and i think the frosting was a bit more butter than any other flavor, so i’m not sure if it was strong enough to hold its own against the cake. however, it was pretty tasty (all snobby food criticisms aside), and i ended up downing four cupcakes in about ten minutes. i really need to go jogging… it’s 10:30 pm… :/
