Basic Buttercream Frosting


I used this recipe to top Alicia's DELISH sugar cookies below. It can be thick or thin- just change the amount of milk until you have the desired consistency. I also used almond extract in the cookies, so I put a dash in the frosting too.

1/2 c. Butter
3 c. Powdered Sugar
3 tbsp. Milk
1 tsp. Vanilla

Cream butter until smooth and slowly add in the sugar, milk and vanilla alternatively until well blended.
