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
Add the softened butter to a mixing bowl along with the cardamom, cinnamon, ground ginger, nutmeg, and vanilla extract.
Using an electric mixer on medium speed, blend all ingredients together until well combined and smooth, about 1-2 minutes.
Pour in the ¼ cup milk and continue mixing until the frosting reaches a creamy, spreadable consistency.
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.
Use immediately to frost cakes, cupcakes, or other baked goods.
