Tools you’ll need

My favorite butter Cream Frosting

Normally I’ll make this Brown Sugar Cinnamon Buttercream Frosting to top my snickerdoodle cupcakes. The flavors pair perfectly together, we’ve had family members use this Graham Cracker snickerdoodle cake recipe and brown sugar buttercream frosting recipe as their wedding cake! It is that good. For the frosting all you need is:

1 c. (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
1/4 c. brown sugar
2 tsp. vanilla extract
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
4 c. powdered sugar
milk, if needed to reach desired consistency

Or just keep it easy a pick up a tub of Vanilla Frosting! My favorite currently is Duncan Hines Creamy Vanilla Frosting
