Ingredients

  • ½ cup salted butter, softened
  • 1 lb. confectioners’ sugar, plus extra for dusting
  • 2 Tb. heavy cream or milk

Directions

  • In large bowl, beat butter until creamy. With mixer on low, beat in sugar, cream and extract until creamy and smooth.*
  • Turn sugar mixture out onto a work surface lightly dusted with confectioners sugar; knead until smooth and satiny. Cover the dough with a slightly damp towel to keep it from drying out.
