Category: Frosting
    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  

1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
Pinch salt
2 and 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon maraschino cherry juice

For garnish:
12 maraschino cherries with stems

To make the Buttercream Frosting: In the bowl , cream the butter until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minute with a mixer.

Add the pinch of salt, powdered sugar, vanilla and almond extracts, lemon juice, and maraschino cherry juice into the bowl. On low speed, incorporate the ingredients until the powdered sugar is mixed in. Increase the speed to medium and beat for about 2-3 minutes. If you like your frosting thicker, add more powdered sugar (small amounts at a time) and if you like it thinner add a bit more cherry juice.

Another way to make a quick frosting

1/4 cup unsalted butter
1 teas butter flavoring, optional
1 3/4 cup powdered sugar or more
4 Tablespoons maraschino cherry juice
I like this for cookies.
