In this video, Betty demonstrates how to make Rich Vanilla Frosting. This is the frosting that was used on our 1000th video yellow cake. This demonstration also shows you how to customize your cake with an image of your choice. Ingredients: 1 cup vanilla baking chips ½ cup half-and-half (This is half milk, half cream.) 1 cup butter 2 ½ cups confectioner’s sugar (This is the same a powdered sugar/icing sugar.) Combine 1 cup vanilla baking chips, ½ cup half-and-half, and 1 cup butter in a double boiler or saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until melted and smooth. Remove from heat. Stir in 2 ½ cups confectioner’s sugar. Set double boiler or saucepan in ice. Beat at medium speed of an electric mixer, until frosting is of spreading consistency. This amount of frosting will easily frost a typical rectangular cake. For a layer cake, you may want to double the recipe or make two separate recipes of frosting. You may customize your cake while the frosting is still soft, by topping it with a decorative sugar layer. Put your chosen image on disk and get a print of it. Take the print to the cake decorating department of your supermarket. (I went to Meijer.) I was able to get them to create only the sugar sheet, but your supermarket may require that you buy the cake and have it iced there, where they will bake and decorate your cake with your chosen design. I hope you enjoy this frosting! Love, Betty ♥

Recipe here: www.joyofbaking.com Stephanie Jaworski of Joyofbaking.com demonstrates how to make a Vanilla Cake. While there are many cakes that are perfect for celebrating birthdays and other special occasions, a two layer Vanilla Cake covered with Confectioners Frosting is especially popular. I really like this Vanilla Cake’s sweet buttery flavor and light and moist texture. The frosting used to both fill and frost the cake also has a sweet and buttery flavor with a light and fluffy texture. To further decorate the cake, you can pipe some of the frosting around the top and base of the cake in a pretty design, and candy dots pressed into the frosting finish the look.
