Peanut Butter Frosting

Smooth, creamy, and perfectly sweet peanut butter frosting is sure to have every peanut butter-loving person addicted to this frosting.

Scale

¾ cup butter (softened to almost room temp but still a tiny bit cool)

½ cup creamy peanut butter (not all-natural)

2 ½ cups powdered sugar *see note

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

¼ cup heavy whipping cream

Pinch of salt

In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, measure the butter and peanut butter. Mix till combined, smooth, and creamy.

Sift the powdered sugar in and mix till combined.

Pour in the vanilla extract, heavy cream, and salt and whip on high speed for about 5 minutes.

Measure and then sift your powdered sugar. Don’t ever make a frosting without sifting your powdered sugar. It’s a game changer.

It seems a bit crazy to mix frosting for this long, but you need to in order to whip the whipping cream so it doesn’t make the frosting runny.

If your frosting ends up being too soft in the end to pipe with then stick it in the fridge to firm up a bit.

Makes enough frosting to frost a 9×13 cake or 2 dozen cupcakes.
