tephraJust something I wanted to try on my favorite chocolate cake (baked in a plain old 13x9x2" pan this time).
At the moment I'm reserving judgment, it's good, but I don't know if it's something I'll make again.
1/2 c butter (one stick), softened
1 c peanut butter
2 tsp vanilla (the real stuff of course)
4 c confectioner's sugar (powdered sugar/icing sugar/whatever they call it in your region)
1/4 to 1/3 c milk or cream
Cream the butters and vanilla until light and fluffy. Slowly beat in 2 cups of sugar then add 1/4 cup of milk to loosen the mix up before slowly adding the remaining sugar. Add remaining milk as needed to reach the proper consistency for spreading.
My favorite frosting for this cake is still this coconut frosting though.
