Frosting Instructions
  1. Cream the butter in a mixing bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed for about 2-3 minutes until light and fluffy.
  2. Gradually add the sifted powdered sugar, mixing initially on low speed to prevent a sugar cloud, then increase to medium for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  3. Incorporate the milk or heavy cream and vanilla extract, beating on medium speed for 1-2 minutes until smooth and creamy.
  4. Continue whipping for an extra 2-3 minutes until light and airy, ensuring it forms soft peaks.
