Bakery-Style Silky Frosting

1. In a saucepan, whisk milk and flour together until smooth.

2. Cook on medium heat, stirring constantly, until it becomes thick like custard.

3. Remove from heat and let it cool completely (very important).

4. In a bowl, beat butter, sugar, and vanilla until very fluffy and pale.

5. Add the cooled milk mixture little by little.

6. Beat for 4–5 minutes until the frosting becomes very light, smooth, and silky.

Tip:
If the frosting looks grainy, keep beating
it turns silky with time.

The milk–flour mixture must be completely cool before adding it to the butter.
If it’s even slightly warm, the frosting will turn loose.

Perfect for cakes, cupcakes, and layered desserts.
