Cake Mix Frosting Food

VANILLA FROSTING

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, using an electric hand mixer, beat the butter until light and smooth. Beat in the powdered sugar, milk and vanilla until smooth and creamy.

CHOCOLATE FROSTING FOR DEVIL'S FOOD CAKE

Steps:

• Beat the butter and mayonnaise in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, on high, until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. With the mixer on low, slowly add the melted chocolate. Continue mixing on low speed until all of the chocolate is incorporated, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
• Turn off the mixer and add one-third of the sugar. Mix on low to combine, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl. Repeat until all of the sugar has been incorporated. Add the salt and continue to beat until the frosting is smooth and lightens slightly in color, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Use immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 hours or refrigerate for up to a week. Bring to room temperature before using chilled frosting.

CAKE MIX FROSTING

Steps:

• Use 1/2 the cake mix.
• Pour into bowl and with electric beater, mix until most lumps are gone.
• Pour in whipping cream.
• Start with 1 cup, add more as needed.
• This can get very thick fast, so just add more whipping cream until you reach desired spreading consistency.
• This is wonderful on angel food cake.
• Just add sprinkles-- For a great variation-- use chocolate cake mix, mix as directed, stir in mini marshmallows, slivered almonds and chocolate chips for a rocky road frosting.
• better yet, rocky road"mousse" as my girls lovingly refer to it.
• They beg me to make this to eat out of the bowl.
