Ingredients:

Serving

3 cups powdered sugar
6 tbsp unsalted butter
2 tsp vanilla
3 -5 tbsp half-and-half
1 pinch salt

Directions:

Measure and place 3 cups powdered sugar into a medium or large mixing bowl.
Add the softened room temprature butter, 2 tsp of vanilla, and begin with 2 T of half and half.
Using electric mixer start beating the frosting.
Slowly add a bit more half and half as you beat the frosting.
I honestly use about 4T of the half and half and I also beat the frosting for at least 3-4 minutes. I highly recommend using the half and half and NOT subbing milk for it - makes a big difference, imho!
If you use salted butter omit the pinch of salt listed in the ingredients.
Frosts 1 13x9 or a layer cake if frosted lightly.
