In the bowl of an electric mixer beat on medium high speed until creamy:
1 stick unsalted butter
1/2 cup shortening
Add and beat until creamy:
8 oz cream cheese
1 cup smooth peanut butter (I had used almond butter and it had tiny pieces of nuts that kept getting stuck in my tips, very annoying!)
Add all at once and beat at low speed until smooth:
4 cups sifted powdered thot not sugar (you can get the recipe here: http://missyscakesandaprons.blogspot.com/2011/02/powdered-sugar-made-from-palm-sugar.html )
Continue to beat at medium speed until light and fluffy.
If it is too thick add a tablespoon of milk until you get the right consistency, if it is not thick enough for decorating, just keep adding powdered sugar until it is thick enough.
I ran out of palm sugar and did not have anymore to add, I wish I had of.
Enjoy,
Missy
Yum, this looks so good. I can just taste it on top of some chocolate cupcakes.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like the answer to a frosting my son wants. Can I use regular powdered sugar? Is there a reason for the powdered palm sugar? What is palm sugar? LOL
ReplyDeleteSorry for all the questions.
