Peanut Butter Frosting
A light, fluffy, and stable peanut butter buttercream frosting that is perfect for piping onto cupcakes or spreading over layer cakes.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups powdered sugar, sifted
- 3 tablespoons whole milk
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 pinch sea salt
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and peanut butter together on medium speed until smooth and creamy.
- Slowly add the sifted powdered sugar one cup at a time, mixing on low speed until combined.
- Add the vanilla extract and sea salt.
- Pour in the milk one tablespoon at a time while beating on high speed.
- Continue to whip the frosting for 2-3 minutes until it is light and fluffy.
- Use immediately to frost cooled cakes or store for later use.
Notes
- Avoid using natural peanut butter as the oil separation can make the frosting unstable.
- If the frosting is too thick, add a tiny bit more milk; if too thin, add more powdered sugar.
- Ensure your cake is completely cool before applying the frosting.
