A great activity is letting the kids decorate their own cupcakes. To do that you need the best butter cream frosting.
Give this one a try, a great topper on any cupcake or cake.
Pop bowls of lollies out and let kids creativity go wild, if you are sticking to a colour them tailor the lollies and frosting to suit !
125grams softened butter
1 1/2 cups icing sugar
1tsp vanilla essence
1Tb thickened cream
1. Using an electric mixer, beat butter in a bowl until light and fluffy.
2. Add icing sugar mixture, cream, vanilla and flavourings (if desired), beating constantly until combined.
Flavouring ideas:
