Fluffy Peanut Butter Frosting

my 18-year-old, A., discovered this recipe when he was assigned to bring dessert to a friend's party. I never use canned frosting, so I'm happy to have another keeper to add to my recipe box!

Peanut Butter Frosting

Ingredients:

1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup creamy peanut butter
3 tablespoons milk (or as needed)
1/2 tsp. vanilla
2 cups powdered sugar



Directions:

In a medium bowl, beat the butter and peanut butter with an electric mixer until completely combined. Gradually mix in the sugar, and when it starts to get thick, incorporate milk and vanilla one tablespoon at a time until all of the sugar is mixed in and the frosting is thick and spreadable. Beat for at least 3 minutes for it to get really fluffy. Makes 2 cups.
