- ½ cup (1 stick, 113g) unsalted butter, softened
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 16 oz (3-4 cups) confectioners' sugar, sifted
- 2 tablespoons milk
- pinch salt
Beat butter in bowl of stand mixer with whisk attachment on medium-high speed until light and fluffy. (about 3 minutes)
Add vanilla extract.
With mixer on low, slowly add in confectioners' sugar, milk, and salt; frequently scrape sides and bottom of bowl.
Once incorporated, whip frosting for at least 3 minutes on medium high to high. (My mixer went for 7 minutes)
If frosting is too thick to spread, gradually beat in additional milk.
