Notes

Use smooth peanut butter for the creamiest texture.

All ingredients must be at room temperature because they blend together better this way.

For a hint of chocolate, you can mix in some cocoa powder.

To make a sweet and salty flavor, add ½ teaspoon salt or use half salted butter and half unsalted.

If icing is too thick, add more heavy cream or milk.

If icing is too thin, add more powdered sugar.

For best results, please don't eyeball anything and use measuring cups.

Leftovers can be stored in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
