Peanut Butter Frosting

Preparation:

You will need a medium mixing bowl, a one cup plus a 1/3 cup plus a 1/4 cup measuring cup a tablespoon and a teaspoon, and an electric mixer or a wooden spoon

Gather Your Ingredients:

Make sure you have everything before you begin.

• 2 tbsp. Butter or margarine, softened
• 1/2 cup smooth or crunchy peanut butter
  
• 3 cups icing sugar
• 1 tsp. Vanilla extract
• 1/4 to 1/3 cup milk

Creating Your Peanut Butter Frosting Masterpiece:

• In a small bowl combine the butter, peanut butter, icing sugar, vanilla, and 1/4 cup milk.
• With an electric mixer at medium speed, or a wooden spoon, beat until creamy.
• If the frosting seems a little thick, gradually add a little more milk.

And that's all there is to it. It will make enough to fill and frost an 8-9 inch two-layer cake and you will have more then enough to frost a layer cake. If there is some left over you can store it in the fridge for a couple weeks..

I have used this recipe many times and it turned out awesome every time.

My kids love decorating the cakes I make. With lots of sprinkles and candies on top, the kids will want you to make them all the time.

Here's a link to my mom's famous peanut butter sheet cake if you want to try it. It's very easy to make and is always a hit with any peanut butter lover.
