Put down the can and make your own Sugar Cookie Frosting from scratch! Made with vanilla beans for a rich flavor, this frosting adds the finishing touch to all your favorite holiday sugar cookies.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups unsalted butter, softened
- 6 cups powdered sugar
- ¼-½ cup milk
- 1 or 2 vanilla beans (scrape out seeds)
- sprinkles, food coloring, for decoration
Instructions
- Beat butter for 3 minutes until pale in color.
- Add in powdered sugar, milk and vanilla beans. Beat for an additional 3 minutes until fluffy. Add food coloring if desired.
- Add sprinkles immediately after frosting the cookies. ENJOY.
Notes
- Spread or pipe frosting onto sugar cookies. If piping, you may need to add a little more milk (closer to the ½ cup), if spreading, use closer to the ¼ cup.
- Allow cookies to set with frosting. Stack between layers of parchment paper to set.
- Frosted cookies can be frozen for up to 30 days. Thaw in refrigerator overnight.
- I use Americolor food coloring for deep lovely colors.
