Old Fashioned Peanut Butter Icing

No, I do not recommend natural types of peanut butter. Use a commercial peanut butter like Jif or Skippy for a creamy smooth texture.

You probably didn’t let your butter soften enough or had big clumps of powdered sugar. If you already have it mixed together I’d suggest beating more to help get the lumps out as much as possible.

It’s great on cakes (chocolate cake, oatmeal cake, banana cake, vanilla cake, etc.), brownies, cupcakes, cookies (even cookie sandwiches), or even as a dip for crackers (like graham crackers).

Fluffy Peanut Butter Frosting Recipe

I’ve learned that a killer frosting can save the day and that it can turn a boring box mix into something AWESOME!

This is the best peanut butter frosting around, it’s so creamy and smooth with the perfect balance of sugar and peanut butter.

Unsalted Butter – You want to use unsalted when it comes to most dessert recipes, but especially in this one since the peanut butter itself has a lot of saltiness and we don’t want this frosting to be overly salty.

Ingredient Peanut Butter Frosting

It’s also very important that the butter is at room temperature, you should be able to press the back of a spoon easily into the butter.

Peanut Butter – You obviously can’t make peanut butter frosting without peanut butter. You want to use creamy peanut butter, I personally prefer Jif.

Powdered Sugar – You’ve got to lighten up the salty peanut butter with something sweet and powdered sugar is just the way to do it. Make sure your powdered sugar isn’t old and hard. You need it to be fine and fluffy, so sift it first if you need to.

Healthy Cream Cheese Frosting (2 Ways!)

Vanilla Extract – Vanilla is such an essential ingredient in the kitchen and especially in frostings. It helps to add a great depth of richness to almost any recipe! Make sure to use good quality vanilla or make your own at home.

Heavy Cream – While this is the best cream form to use, it’s my understanding that it can be hard to find in some parts of the country. In which case, whipping cream will do just fine.

Using heavy or whipping cream allows for a night whip during the mixing process which yields a light and fluffy frosting everyone is sure to go crazy for!

For mixing, I find it best to make this frosting in a stand mixer with a paddle attachment (but a whisk attachment is fine too).

The high power can whip this recipe into the fluffy gloriousness that makes it so great. In a pinch, a hand mixer will do just fine!

I Make This Frosting A Lot! Sometimes I just eat it straight, because it’s peanut butter awesomeness! So I’ve had a lot of practice and have a lot of troubleshooting tips!

Peanut Butter Frosting (easy, Creamy, Fluffy Recipe!)

Did you use Natural Peanut Butter? This is usually the most common reason. Peanut butter that has been sitting a long time that has separated will cause an oily frosting. I prefer to use JIF creamy peanut butter, I find it gives the best flavor and texture.

I wouldn’t recommend it, especially if you plan on piping the frosting onto a dessert. Stick with creamy for the best results!

This Peanut Butter Frosting Recipe makes about 8 cups. This should be enough to frost 24 cupcakes, a 9×13-inch sheet cake, a 2-layer 8 or 9-in round layer cake, or fill 12 whoopie pies.

The Best Peanut Butter Frosting

The small amount of heavy cream is stabilized by the amount of confectioners sugar in the recipe. And is considered safe at room temperature for two to three days.

So if you need to frost a chocolate cake, fill some Whoopie Pies, or top a Chocolate Cupcake Recipe this is the peanut butter frosting you want! I hope you try this recipe and I hope you love it as much as everyone else does! It’s absolutely amazing!
