100g butter, softened Cream Butter till light and fluffy. Add vanilla. Gradually beat in icing sugar, beating until smooth. Add sufficent water (milk) to giver a spreading consistency.

Here is another one for you
Makes 3 cups (for 1 cake) Ingredients 250g butter, cubed, at room temperature 450g (3 cups) pure icing sugar, sifted 60ml (1/4 cup) milk Method Place the butter in a large mixing bowl. Use an electric beater to beat for 2 minutes or until very light and fluffy. Gradually add the icing sugar and beat until the mixture is very pale and fluffy. Gradually add the milk and beat until smooth and well combined. Notes & tips Variation 1 - orange butter icing: Add 1 tbs finely grated orange rind with the butter. Variation 2 - coffee butter icing: Dissolve 2 tbs instant coffee granules in the milk. Variation 3 - chocolate butter icing: Reduce the icing sugar to 230g (1 1/2 cups). Omit the milk. Stir in 250g melted, cooled, good-quality dark chocolate. Variation 4 - dark chocolate butter icing: Reduce the icing sugar to 300g (2 cups). Omit the milk. Sift in 2 tbs cocoa powder and then stir in 600g melted, cooled, good-quality dark chocolate. Dont forget to write it down   ------------- Mummy of Two Boys B: 2004 K: 2007 |

Totally use milk... it gives it a really creamy texture and is the only way I like butter icing.
Mmmmmm... hungry now. Think I need to make another batch of cupcakes! |
