Creamy and Easy Peppermint Frosting
This easy Peppermint Frosting is ultra creamy with a refreshing mint taste. Made with just 5 ingredients and in under 10 minutes, you'll be whipping up this easy buttercream recipe to top all of your holiday treats.
Mint buttercream frosting tastes of creamy vanilla and crushed candy cane. Chocolate peppermint is such a classic combination, but you'll love putting this peppermint icing on all of your seasonal bakes.
This ultra festive and delightful peppermint buttercream frosting can't get any easier to make at home. All you have to do to make it peppermint is add peppermint extract!
Peppermint extract is the star ingredient here, so make sure to grab a pure mint extract. Since there are so few ingredients, I recommend a good quality vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste to go along with it.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup unsalted butter softened
- 4 cups powdered sugar sifted as needed
- 2 to 4 tablespoon heavy whipping cream
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon pure peppermint extract add more to taste
