Vanilla Buttercream Frosting Vanilla Buttercream Frosting
This is my favorite recipe for basic vanilla buttercream. I prefer this over any bakery or store bought frosting I've had. It's sturdy and holds its shape well. This yields enough to frost a 9x13" sheet cake or about 12-16 cupcakes, depending how liberally you frost them. Recipe source: Sallysbakingaddiction.com Christina -
