Cranberry Buttercream - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 cup cranberry jelly, melted
    4 -5 cups powdered sugar
    1 cup butter, didn't measure
    1 pinch salt
    1 -2 teaspoon vanilla
    1 tablespoon milk
Preparation
    Melt the cranberry jelly, add it to the mixer/bowl and whip until the bowl is cool to the touch. I used the whisk attachment on my mixer.
    Add the salt, vanilla, and butter until it starts to come together (1 cup or more, I didn't really measure, and buttercream isn't supposed to be healthy ;) ).
    When the butter and melted cranberry jelly come together (basically a flavored butter) start adding the sugar until you are at the sweetness level you like.
    Add some of the milk if the buttercream is too think.
