Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Butter
- 0.5 cup Milk
- 1 cup Brown sugar
- 1 cup Peanut butter
- 3 cups Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat until completely liquid.
Add the milk and brown sugar to the saucepan, stirring constantly. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil and let it simmer for 2 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from heat and immediately stir in the peanut butter until smooth and well combined. Let the mixture cool to room temperature for 10-15 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent lumps or uneven textures.
Once the mixture has cooled, transfer it to a large mixing bowl.
Gradually beat in powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time, using a hand mixer or stand mixer on low speed. Continue mixing until smooth and creamy.
Add the vanilla extract and beat on medium speed until the frosting is light and fluffy.
Use immediately to frost cakes, cupcakes, or cookies, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Bring to room temperature and re-whip before using, if needed.
