Ingredients

¼ cup butter, softened

½ teaspoon cardamom

1 teaspoon cinnamon

¼ teaspoon ground ginger

¼ teaspoon nutmeg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

¼ cup milk, plus more as needed for consistency

Directions

  1. Add the softened butter to a mixing bowl along with the cardamom, cinnamon, ground ginger, nutmeg, and vanilla extract.

  2. Using an electric mixer on medium speed, blend all ingredients together until well combined and smooth, about 1-2 minutes.

  3. Pour in the ¼ cup milk and continue mixing until the frosting reaches a creamy, spreadable consistency.

  4. Check the consistency—if it is too thick, add more milk one teaspoon at a time and mix until you reach your desired spreadability. If it is too thin, add powdered sugar one tablespoon at a time and blend again.

  5. Use immediately to frost cakes, cupcakes, or other baked goods.
