Frosting

Good Morning!

So yesterday was my practice day. I was working on buttercream frosting. I have mixed feelings about my results. I took a basic recipe and changed it a bit. I added more butter, less sugar, and a little more vanilla. I am not personally a big fan of frosting (except for cream cheese frosting!) because its so sweet so I thought the extra butter and less sugar would make a difference. And I think it did. I enjoyed the taste much more than any of my past trys. Corny gave it the thumbs up, and he doesn't really like frosting that much either. My problem now is the consistency. I cannot get that fluffiness I am looking for. Corny took the cake to work though, so I will wait and hear what his co-workers think! I wanted to add pictures of the outcome, (which I usually will) but due to the fact that I threw my iPhone in the washing machine yesterday I was not able to take any.

There will be no baking today! Due to all of us being sick last week the house looks like a tornado or two has blown through it! I really need to do some cleaning. So my goal today it get the house somewhat put back together. Tomorrow I will post a baking tip, and what I will be baking.

Happy Monday to everyone, hope its a wonderful week!!
