I'm 11 years old. I just made this frosting and it tasted great! I didn't make any changes to it, though. I added green food coloring to it and it tasted wonderful with my Devil's food cupcakes. Loved it.

Let your imagination use this as a guide only! Add a heaping tablespoon on peanut butter for a delightful icing on chocolate cake. Top with crushed pb M&M's. Use almond extract instead of vanilla, or try a mint extract. With a few changes, the possibilities are endless! Cooking teacher from Wisconsin.

 Sabrina M. (Michigan) says:
I loved this frosting. It was sooo good. The only thing I would advise is adding more milk (just a little) and a tsp. of salt and just a little less sugar. It was so good and easy and im only 12!

 Alli (Texas) says:
I ran out of Confectioner's sugar so I used regular cane sugar. It gave it a stranger texture. Good idea for the daring.

 Norma Rauch (Nevada) says:
This was great, my kids had fun making it, we added yellow food coloring, and spread the frosting on lemon cupcakes, delicious!

 Nicole (Rhode Island) says:
Extremely easy to make! Instead of blending the butter and sugar at the beginning, wait until all ingredients are added and then beat all together. This way, the sugar doesn't fly up and make a mess! If the frosting is still too thick, add more milk. ;D

Making cupcakes for my kids school at 11pm and realize I have NO vanilla icing. In a panic I did a quick google and found this EASY and QUICK recipe. Turned out great!! I don't think I'll ever buy store frosting again. I don't usually write reviews but this was too good not to. THANK YOU!!!
