Williams Sonoma Vanilla Buttercream Frosting - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 cups confectioners' sugar
8 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
2 tablespoons milk (plus more, if needed)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pinch kosher salt

Preparation

Have all ingredients at room temperature.
In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the flat beater, beat together the confectioners' sugar, butter, the 2 tablespoons milk, the vanilla and salt on low speed until combined, about 1 minute. Stop the mixer and scrape down the sides of the bowl. Increase the speed to medium and beat until fluffy, about 3 minutes. If the frosting is dry, add more milk, a tablespoon at a time, until it is creamy but still holds peaks.
