"Why pink?" I will pretend you asked because the question is the perfect segue to the reason I am posting twice today.
Pastel frosting goes nicely with the cupcake table runner I recently finished and wanted to show you.
I am now done posting for today. I am going to eat a cupcake.
RED VELVET CAKE FROSTING
1 cup milk
2 TBL flour
1 c. granulated sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
1 c. butter
Cook flour and milk in double boiler until thick, stirring constantly. Let milk mixture cool completely. Cream sugar, butter and vanilla until light & fluffy (takes about 8 minutes). Add the cooled milk/flour mixture and beat about another 10 minutes.
Makes enough for 2 dozen cupcakes
They look so pretty with the runner...You are a clever gal. I make the same frosting. Balisha
ReplyDeleteThanks, Balisha. It seems like a lot of people like that frosting. It is nice to have a frosting that is not super sweet!
