Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 7 oz marshmallow cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer on medium speed to beat the unsalted butter until creamy and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 2
Gradually add the powdered sugar, about 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition until fully incorporated.
Step 3
Add the marshmallow cream and vanilla extract to the mixture. Beat on medium speed until the frosting is smooth and uniform in texture.
Step 4
If the frosting is too thick, add milk, 1 teaspoon at a time, and continue to beat until the desired consistency is reached.
Step 5
Use the frosting immediately or transfer it to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days. Bring it back to room temperature and re-whip before using.
