Peanut Butter Icing
Description
A silky, creamy peanut butter icing from Southern Living — confectioner's sugar, creamy peanut butter, unsalted butter, vanilla, and salt beaten together at medium-low speed, then finished with heavy cream beaten on high until light and smooth. The perfect frosting for chocolate cake, chocolate cupcakes, or brownies.
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Place confectioner's sugar, peanut butter, butter, vanilla, and salt in the bowl of an electric mixer.
-
Mix at medium-low speed until creamy, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula.
-
Add heavy cream and beat on high speed until the mixture is light and smooth.
-
Use immediately or refrigerate and re-whip briefly before using.
Note
Beat the cream in at high speed for a full minute to create a light, fluffy texture. Under-beating produces a dense, heavy frosting.
