Best Frosting Ever

This Ultimate Frosting Recipe, also known as Ermine Frosting, is celebrated for its airy texture, silky consistency, and reliability. Its signature smoothness comes from cooking milk and flour into a thick base before blending it with butter and sugar for a flawless finish.

Ingredient Quantity
All-purpose flour 5 tablespoons
Milk 1 cup
Unsalted butter (softened) 1 cup
Granulated sugar 1 cup
Vanilla extract 1 teaspoonStep 1: Combine Flour and Milk
In a medium-sized saucepan, whisk together 5 tablespoons of flour and 1 cup of milk until the mixture is smooth and lump-free.

Add the cooled flour-milk paste to the butter-sugar mixture. Beat on medium-high speed for about 3–5 minutes, or until everything is fully combined, smooth, and whipped to a silky texture.

Mix in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, beating until the flavor is evenly incorporated.

Step 7: Frost and Enjoy
Spread this creamy frosting generously over your favorite cakes or cupcakes — smooth, light, and absolutely delicious!
