Quick Vanilla Buttercream Frosting
My go-to recipe for buttercream frosting with only 4 ingredients!
I have no clue where this recipe came from (if you recognize it from anywhere, let me know!), but it's my go-to for buttercream frosting :]
What you need:
3 cups powdered sugar
1 cup unsalted butter, slightly softened
1 tsp. vanilla extract
3 to 4 Tbsp. Cool Whip
Directions:
In a stand mixer with whisk attachment, mix butter and sugar together on low speed until well blended. Then increase the speed to medium and beat for another 3 minutes.
Add vanilla and Cool Whip; continue to beat for another minute at medium speed.
If needed, add more Cool Whip until it's a spreading consistency.
