CREAMY PEANUT BUTTER FROSTING

This frosting is made for all of you Peanut Butter lovers out there. It’s something that you will be eating right out of the mixing bowl by the spoonful.

I use this frosting for a lot of yummy desserts, but mostly for my Chocolate Peanut Butter Cake. It is SO delicious and a must try if you are a chocolate pb fan.

​

INGREDIENTS:
2 C Soft, Unsalted Butter
1 1/2 C Creamy Peanut Butter
3 lbs Powdered Sugar
1 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
1 C - 1 1/2 C Heavy Cream

​

Instructions: 

1. In a stand mixer, use your paddle attachment and cream your butter. Mix on medium/high speed for 2-3 minutes. Or until creamy. (Make sure there are no clumps) 
2. Once creamy, add in peanut butter. Mix until fully incorporated.
3. Turn mixer down to low speed and add in your vanilla extract
4. Add in all of your powdered sugar, let mix for about 1 minute. 
5. Scrape down bowl to make sure everything is incorporated. 
6. Add in your heavy cream and mix for about 5 minutes or until creamy. (Add cream AS NEEDED. Don’t use all of it if you don’t need it. Too much cream will make your frosting runny) 
7. Once fully mixed, take off stand mixer and mix your frosting with a wooden spoon and get out any extra air pockets and create a smooth creamy finish.
