Ingredients
1 cup smooth peanut butter (use a commercial brand, not a pure organic brand as you actually need the added oil.)
3 tablespoons milk, or as needed
2 cups confectioners' sugar
Instructions
Make sure butter and peanut butter are at room temperature (and butter not melted) - this is important or the texture will be coarse! Leave them on the counter a few hours or overnight.
Place the butter and peanut butter into a medium bowl, and beat with an electric mixer. Gradually mix in the sugar, and when it starts to get thick, incorporate milk one tablespoon at a time until all of the sugar is mixed in and the frosting is thick and spreadable. Beat for at least 3 minutes for it to get good and fluffy.
Use on chocolate cake or cupcakes!
It may be possible to make this soy-free also with a soy-free brand of peanut butter, but check the ingredients carefully as most commercial peanut butter does contain soy.
Frosting can also be dyed with food colouring (double check food colouring doesn't have any problem ingredients)
