Dr. Frosting

Print Recipe Pin Recipe

1 tub Vanilla Canned Frosting
1 box Cream Cheese optional (adding this makes a killer cream cheese frosting for sugar cookies fyi)
2-3 drops Extract of choice I prefer 2 drops of Vanilla & 1 drop of Almond
3-4 tbsp Confectioners Sugar *you may continue adding 1 tbsp at a time until you have reached desired consistency*

*I like to use my KitchenAid mixer for this particular recipe using the paddle attachment. That way I can walk away for a few seconds (or 15 minutes because I get side-tracked and forget I'm even making cake). But, a hand mixer will do just fine.*
Empty your tub of frosting into a bowl, slowly mix in your extract 1 drop at a time and lastly add the sugar.
This frosting leaves a delicate crust around your cake. Enough to hold it in place, but soft enough to taste super fresh.

Add too much powdered sugar? No problem - simply add milk, 1 tbsp at a time, until it thins the frosting to your liking.
