Does anyone else have trouble with the frosting feeling grainy? I’ve tried different brands of sugar, but still get that grainy feeling.

I’ve made several variations of this frosting recipe, including a sugar-free version with Splenda substituted for the sugar (it works very well!) and a St. Patty’s Day version where I substituted Bailey’s for half of the milk. Yummo!

By the way, this frosting makes an awesome filling inside of chocolate cupcakes… or ANY kind of cupcake, for that matter.

I made it this weekend as the filling for chocolate sandwich cookies with my niece and nephew. We portioned it three ways and tinted it orange, green and purple for Halloween! Everyone loved it.

So I was having a blue day and made this frosting (yes, just the frosting) about a week ago and rented Valentine’s Day on my TV and ate the whole bowl. Best idea ever! LOL.

Ummmmm…it was sooooooo good. I think the heat on my flour concoction was a little too high because it was so thick my forearm was soar by the end of mixing it. I also only had salted butter in the house BUT it still turned out incredible.

I mixed it for a long time in my stand mixer and just watched it get lighter and fluffier as the time ticked by. My brother even taste tested it and loved it! And he only likes the stuff on sheet cakes from the supermarket.

I think it’s a great frosting for those who are afraid of making frosting at home. It’s like you could do everything wrong (like I did) and still it comes out the best frosting ever!

This is almost identical to a frosting recipe I discovered the other day at “Our Best Bites”. A slight difference is the Our Best Bites uses has 1 more T of flour. But a much larger difference is they have you whip the frosting on high for 7-9 minutes. It gets so smooth and light and tastes fantastic (I assume it tastes similar to this recipe here, but the consistency may be different.) I’ve used the Our Best Bites recipe twice in the last week and plan on using it this weekend again. Try whipping it for awhile and see what you think!!

I love this frosting! My Mom used to make it for every cake growing up. She always put the leftovers on graham crackers for us. So GOOD!!!!!

HELP!!!!!!

I made this icing today and leave it to me to screw it up! I am pretty darn good cook but a baker…not so much. It ended up runny! I could literlly drink it and true to all of the comments the flavor is yummy! I let my butter soften. Is that where I messed up?

Please someone comment and let me know! I have a batch of unfrosted cupcakes just waiting to be slathered with some of the ‘best frosting’!!
