This is The Best Peanut Butter Frosting Recipe you're going to find. It's sweet, creamy, peanut buttery PERFECTION made with peanut butter, butter, powdered sugar, vanilla, and heavy cream!

Ingredients  


Instructions

  • In a large bowl or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream together the 1 cup unsalted butter and 1 cup peanut butter, scraping down the sides of the bowl. 
  • Add the 3¼ cups powdered sugar one cup at a time, alternating with 5 tablespoons heavy cream, one tablespoon at a time.
  • Add in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and whip on medium-high speed for 2 to 3 minutes until frosting is light and fluffy.

Notes

  • Add additional cream or powdered sugar as needed to reach the desired consistency. If you prefer your frosting a bit thicker for piping or spreading, simply mix in more powdered sugar, one tablespoon at a time, until it’s just right. If it’s looking a little too thick, add extra heavy cream, tablespoon by tablespoon, until you’ve achieved that perfect, creamy texture.
  • Frosting can be made with a hand mixer, but it will not be as whipped.
