Buttercream Icing
CDKitchen https://www.cdkitchen.com
Serves/Makes: 2 cups    |   Ready In: 30-60 minutes

Ingredients:
1 cup milk
6 tablespoons flour
1 cup butter or margarine
1 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 tablespoon cocoa if you want chocolate icing
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions:
Combine the milk and flour in a heavy saucepan with a wire whisk. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly until the flour is completely dissolved and the mixture is very thick (to the point you can barely stir it - switch to a wooden spoon if needed).

Remove the pan from the stove and let the mixture cool completely.

Meanwhile, in a large mixing bowl, combine the butter, sugar, and cocoa (if using) and beat with a mixer on medium speed until creamy and combined.

Add the thickened milk mixture and vanilla extract and beat on medium speed for 4-5 minutes or until thick and creamy.

Frost a cooled cake or cupcakes as desired.

The frosting can also be tinted with food coloring.
