I started this blog so my daughters could find all of our family favourite recipes in one place. It has actually grown into more than just the family favourites but also other recipes we've tried out in our kitchen. I don't like to fill up the post with alot of chatter. Sometimes there's a little story to tell, but usually I like to get right to the point. So this is for them, but hope you find some recipes that you like as well. I'll be sharing a lot of recipes, and along the way you'll find some crafty things and maybe some helpful hints too! Welcome!

Whipped Vanilla Frosting

This homemade frosting is super creamy and fluffy. Use it to frost a layer cake or pipe on top of cupcakes.

Ingredients:

1 cup unsalted room temperature butter

3 1/4 cups icing sugar, sifted

1/3 cup 35% whipping cream

2 tsps vanilla extract

pinch of salt

Whisk the butter in a mixer on high 3-5 minutes until creamy. Then on medium speed add the icing sugar in 2 or 3 additions and beat until fully mixed in. Then add the cream, vanilla and salt and whip on high for a full 5 minutes. This is how it looks after 5 minutes with a whisk attachment. If you want to get rid of the bubbles and have a more smooth frosting use the flat spatula attachment for 2 more minutes.

Makes enough frosting for a 2 layer 8" cake.
