On Valentine's day the kids and I baked up some Betty Crocker sugar cookie mix cookies to decorate. Super yummy but super flat... maybe should've followed the baking directions for high altitude and added some more flour... The frosting was so complimentary I thought I'd post it. It is sweet and rich so you only need a thin layer, but it was the perfect "kid cookie". The hearts of course got eaten up right away.
And in case you need photographic evidence of this frosting's deliciosity:
Told ya it's good.
Recipe adapted from Cooks.com
-1 lb. box confectioner's sugar (I just measure out 16 oz. on my kitchen scale.)
-1 teaspoon vanilla extract
-1 stick butter, softened (I use salted)
-4-5 Tbsp heavy cream
-1/8 tsp. salt, or just a pinch
-1 teaspoon vanilla extract
-1 stick butter, softened (I use salted)
-4-5 Tbsp heavy cream
-1/8 tsp. salt, or just a pinch
Mix all ingredients until smooth. Add more cream if frosting is too stiff, add confectioner's sugar if too runny. Frost thinly over sugar cookies.
I think sugar cookie frosting is my most favorite ever! :) This looks yummy.
