Ingredients
¼ cup softened butter (or dairy-free margarine)
½ teaspoon cardamom
1 teaspoon cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground ginger
¼ teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ cup milk (or almond milk)
Directions
Place the softened butter in a large mixing bowl.
Add the cardamom, cinnamon, ground ginger, nutmeg, and vanilla extract to the butter.
Using an electric mixer on medium speed, blend all ingredients until the spices are fully incorporated and the mixture becomes smooth and creamy, about 2–3 minutes.
Gradually add the milk while mixing, stirring until the frosting reaches your desired spreading consistency. If the frosting is too thick, add a small amount of additional milk; if too thin, add powdered sugar a tablespoon at a time and blend again.
Use immediately on cooled cakes, cupcakes, or cookies.
