12 TO 16 SERVINGS, ABOUT 1 3/4 CUPS
3 cups powdered sugar
1/3 cup butter or margarine, softened
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 -2 tablespoons milk
1 Mix powdered sugar and butter in medium bowl with spoon or with electric mixer on low speed. Stir in vanilla and 1 tablespoon of the milk.
2 Gradually beat in just enough remaining milk to make frosting smooth and spreadable. If frosting is too thick, beat in more milk, a few drops at a time. If frosting becomes too thin, beat in a small
amount of powdered sugar. Generously frosts a 13 x 9-inch cake, or fills and frosts an 8- or 9-inch two-layer cake.

Cherry Buttercream Frosting: 2 tablespoons drained, chopped maraschino cherries and 2 drops red food color.
Orange Buttercream Frosting: Omit vanilla. Substitute orange juice for the milk. Stir in 2 teaspoons grated orange peel.
Peanut Butter Frosting: Substitute creamy peanut butter for the butter. Increase milk to 1/4 cup, adding more if necessary, a few drops at a time.
