Peanut Butter Frosting

 1 c creamy peanut butter

8 tbs (1 stick) butter, at room temp

2 c confectioners' sugar, sifted

3 to 4 tbs milk

2 tsp vanilla extract


1. Place the peanut butter and butter in a large mixing bowl.  Blend with an electric mixer on low speed until fluffy, 30 seconds.  Stop the machine.  Add the confectioners' sugar, 3 tbs milk, and the vanilla.  Blend with the mixer on low speed until the sugar is well combined, 1 minute.  Increase the speed to medium and beat until the frosting lightens and is fluffy, 1 minute more.  Blend in up to 1 tbs milk if the frosting seems too stiff.  

2. Use at once to frost a cake of choice.
