Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup (softened) unsalted butter
- 4 cups powdered sugar
- 3 tablespoons milk
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 12 cookies chocolate sandwich cookies (crushed)
- 1 pinch salt
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment to beat the softened butter on medium speed until creamy and smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
Gradually add the powdered sugar, about 1/2 cup at a time, mixing on low speed after each addition to avoid a sugar cloud. Once incorporated, increase the mixer speed to medium-high and beat until fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Add the milk, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Beat on medium-high speed until the frosting achieves a light and fluffy consistency, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
Use a food processor or a zip-top bag and rolling pin to crush the chocolate sandwich cookies into fine crumbs, leaving some small chunks for texture.
Fold the crushed cookies into the frosting using a spatula until evenly distributed. Be careful not to overmix to avoid discoloring the frosting.
Use immediately to frost cakes, cupcakes, or as a dip. For best results, store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Allow to come to room temperature and re-whip before using.
