SIMPLE AND DELICIOUS BUTTERCREAM FROSTING
I decided on a whim yesterday that I wanted to make cupcakes for Canada Day. I didn't have time to buy frosting before getting ready for the fireworks show, so I ended up making my own with ingredients I already had. I was shocked at how quick and easy this was! This basic vanilla recipe makes enough to cover a dozen cupcakes, but feel free to double it (for cakes), triple it, add food coloring or different flavor extracts. If you find this too sweet, you can add a dash of salt to the milk or the vanilla. Personally I like it sweet, and I used salted butter, so I didn't find it necessary.

FLUFFY BUTTERCREAM FROSTING
I created this frosting recipe today for my sugar cookies. I'm not a fan of super sweet icing so I decided to make my own...I love Italian Buttercream but it is way to time consuming for rolled sugar cookies (which already take a long time).
