Fluffy Marshmallow Buttercream Frosting

1. 1

   Start by leaving the butter out to come to a room temperature. Do not melt the butter in the microwave, for that will separate the oils and fats in the butter and will result in a buttercream with a texture similar to cottage cheese.

2. 2

   Cream the butter until it is light and fluffy. Then begin to add the powdered sugar a spoonful at a time. The amount of powdered sugar I wrote above is just a suggestion. Not much sugar is needed since the marshmallow fluff is very sweet. You can always add more sugar after you've mixed in everything.

3. 3

   Mix in the whole container of marshmallow fluff. Keep mixing until everything is combined.

4. 4

   Add your favorite extracts and seasonings. This frosting is super versatile.

5. 5

   My personal favorite is peppermint extract which gives a light and refreshing flavor to the fluffy frosting.

6. 6

   Depending on what your use for this frosting is, you may want to add some milk into the frosting to thin it out. I have noticed that the frosting can tend to be on the thick side without the milk. Take care to add only a few drops of milk at a time, for you don't want a gloopy mess that's too thin to frost.

7. 7

   Try not to eat it before it gets on a cake or a cupcake. (:
