Ermine Frosting is incredible! You start with flour and milk and cook it into a paste. I know, pretty weird but this is the best frosting!

And it's really simple too.

Growing up, I called this the fluffy frosting, but it's real name is Ermine Frosting. It is named after the smooth texture of ermine fur.

This recipe makes enough for the three-layer cake shown here    • Our Fluffy White VANILLA CAKE - White...  

Equipment:
Meltless ice cubes https://amzn.to/3KTdYRF
Touchless Thermometer like mine https://amzn.to/47KUUPb

Ingredients:
2 c (400g) sugar
1 1/2 c (350 ml) milk
1 tsp kosher salt
1 c (120 g) flour
2 c (360g) unsalted butter
2 tsp vanilla extract

1. Whisk all the dry ingredients and milk together as shown in the video, and stir constantly on medium heat until it comes together as a very thick paste.
2. Pour into a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let come to room temperature. You can put it into the fridge to make it cool faster, but careful not to let it get chilled. You want the paste and butter to be the same temperature. It makes them combine better.
3. With a paddle take 4 sticks (360g) of butter and beat until fluffy. Room temperature butter. After 5-seven minutes, you'll see the color has changed to a very light yellow.
4. Now add the cooled paste one tablespoon at a time and beat until smooth.
5. At the end, add in 2 tsp vanilla extract.
