• Step 1

  Prepare a stand mixer with a whisk attachment.

• Step 2

  Whisk butter until creamy.

• Step 3

  Reduce speed to low and add in icing sugar 1 cup at a time until well blended.

• Step 4

  Increase speed to med and beat for 3 minutes.

• Step 5

  Add vanilla and 2tbsp cream and continue to beat on medium for 1 minute.

• Step 6

  Add more cream as needed until desired consistency is reached (I added all 4).

• Step 7

  I whipped this for a few minutes longer as I was determined to get rid of the graininess.

• Step 8

  Frost on a cool cake and chill.
  *This made enough to frost the rosette cake pictured but would likely be too much if you're just looking to do a regular frosting on a 2 layer cake. If so, I would suggest cutting this recipe in half.
