Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup milk
  • 5 tbs all purpose flour
  • 1 cup room temp butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Method
 

  1. Mix milk and flour into a heavy bottom pot.
  2. Bring to a boil until thickened, whisking all the while. It will be lumpy.
  3. Cool.
  4. Cream together butter, sugar, vanilla, salt. To your creamed mixture add the cooled milk/flour mixture and whip until nice and fluffy.
  5. Remember, frostings and fillings made with butter are not shelf stable like the frostings made with shortening and should be stored in the refrigerator.
