Serving Tip: Let frosted desserts sit at room temperature for about 20 minutes before serving for the softest, smoothest bite.
Storage Tip: Store leftover frosting in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week. Before reusing, bring it to room temperature and re-whip for that fluffy texture. Freeze for up to 3 months if needed.
Variations:
Chocolate Peanut Butter Frosting: Blend in 1/4 cup melted and cooled semi-sweet chocolate or sift in 2 tablespoons cocoa powder with the powdered sugar.
Honey Peanut Twist: Add an extra tablespoon of honey for a richer, deeper sweetness.
Crunchy Version: Use crunchy peanut butter for a fun, textured variation.
FAQ:
Q: Can I use natural peanut butter?
A: It’s better to stick to conventional brands like Jif or Skippy, as natural peanut butter tends to separate and can make the frosting oily.
Q: How long can I store the frosting?
A: Refrigerated, it stays fresh for about a week. You can also freeze it for up to 3 months. Always re-whip after thawing for the best texture.
Q: Is this frosting good for piping?
A: Absolutely! Just make sure it’s a bit stiffer by reducing the amount of cream you add. Chill slightly if needed before piping.
Q: Can I make this frosting dairy-free?
A: Yes, use dairy-free butter and plant-based milk alternatives like almond or oat milk for a vegan-friendly version.
