For the best flavor, use high-quality butter.
Sifting the confectioners' sugar is crucial for a smooth, lump-free frosting.
Adjust the amount of milk to achieve your desired consistency. For piping, you may want a slightly thicker frosting.
Store leftover frosting in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Bring to room temperature and re-whip before using.
