This weekend was my good friend's daughters fourth birthday party. She invited fifty guests and had asked me to make St. Patrick's themed cupcakes for the kids. I used a Barefoot Contessa vanilla sheet cake recipe with another buttercream recipe I had. Vanilla on vanilla...boring, I know! But that is what the birthday girl wanted, so that is what the birthday girl got! The cake was highly disappointing (I usually like Ina Garten) but the frosting was yummy! So here's the recipe:
Vanilla Buttercream Frosting
1 stick butter, room temperature
1-1/2 cups sifted powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons milk
1. Beat butter at medium-high speed until creamy.
2. Sift powdered sugar into the mixer bowl (right on top of the beaten butter). Beat to combine.
3. Add the vanilla and the milk. Beat until combin
