Ermine Frosting (Boiled Milk Frosting)

Silky, fluffy, and not overly sweet, Ermine Frosting is an old-fashioned favorite that’s perfect for red velvet, chocolate, or vanilla cakes.

Ingredients

* 1 cup whole milk
* 5 tbsp all-purpose flour
* 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
* 1 cup granulated sugar
* 1 tsp vanilla extract
* Pinch of salt (optional)

Directions

1. In a small saucepan, whisk together the milk and flour until smooth.
2. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture becomes very thick, like pudding.
3. Transfer to a bowl, press plastic wrap directly onto the surface, and let cool completely to room temperature.
4. In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar for 4–5 minutes until very light and fluffy.
5. Beat in the vanilla (and salt, if using).
6. Add the cooled flour mixture one tablespoon at a time, beating well after each addition.
7. Continue beating for 4–6 minutes until the frosting is silky, light, and fluffy.

Tip: The cooked flour mixture must be completely cool before adding it to the butter, or the frosting may become runny.
