Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Powdered sugar
  • 2 tbsp Unsalted butter (softened)
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 1-2 tbsp Milk (or heavy cream)
  • 2 tbsp Chopped nuts (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Sift the Powdered Sugar: Begin by sifting the powdered sugar into a mixing bowl to remove lumps.
  • Cream the Butter: In a separate bowl, beat the softened butter until it is smooth and fluffy.
  • Combine Sugar and Butter: Gradually add the sifted powdered sugar to the creamed butter, mixing on low speed until combined.
  • Add Vanilla and Milk: Stir in the vanilla extract and 1 tablespoon of milk. If the icing is too thick, gradually add more milk until you achieve the desired consistency.
  • Optional – Add Nuts: Fold in the chopped nuts if you prefer a nutty flavor in your icing.

Notes

Feel free to customize the icing by adding different flavors like almond extract or incorporating cocoa powder for a chocolate twist.
