Ingredients
1cupUnsalted ButterAt room temperature
⅓cupSmooth Peanut Butter
1teaspoonPure Vanilla Extract
2½cupsPowdered (Confectioners) Sugar
Instructions
In the bowl of an electric stand mixer, beat butter until smooth and light in colour about 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
With the mixer on low speed, add in peanut butter and vanilla and mix until combined. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
Next add in the powered sugar one cup at a time with the mixer on low.
Increase the speed of the mixer to medium for 1 more minute until buttercream is light and fluffy. Don't over mix, because the frosting will become too soft and difficult to pipe.
Pipe onto cupcake and garnish with salted peanuts and drizzle slightly melted honey over top. Enjoy!
