How do you make icing using cream?
To make cream icing, you will need:
**- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
- 3 cups confectioners' sugar
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract**
Instructions:
1. In a medium bowl, beat the butter on low speed until fluffy and smooth, about 1-2 minutes.
2. Gradually beat in the confectioners' sugar and mix until light and fluffy.
3. Add the heavy cream and vanilla extract and beat on medium speed until combined.
4. If the cream is too thick, add more heavy cream. If it's too thin, add more confectioners' sugar.
5. Use the icing immediately or refrigerate until ready to use.
