Dream Whip Frosting Recipes

DREAM WHIP FROSTING

Steps:

• Beat all ingredients until moistened.
• Beat frosting on high 4-5 minutes until soft peaks form.
• Frost cooled dream whip cake.
• Refrigerate leftovers.

DREAM WHIP BUTTER FROSTING

Steps:

• Combine 1/3 cup milk, vanilla, and Dream Whip in large bowl.
• Add half of sugar; blend well. Whip rapidly until thickened-about 2 minutes.
• At medium speed alternately add remaining sugar and milk; beat after each addition.
• Add butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating well.
• Makes 2 3/4 cups, enough for 8- or 9-inch layer cake or 24 cupcakes.
• LEMON OR ORANGE BUTTER FROSTING.
• Prepare as above; omit vanilla and substitute 2 tablespoons lemon or orange juice for the 2 tablespoons milk. Add 1 teaspoon grated lemon or orange rind after beating in butter.

WHIPPED CREAM FROSTING

Steps:

• Place a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer in the freezer until cold, about 5 minutes. Alternatively, fill the bowl with ice water and let stand for 5 minutes. Pour out the ice water and quickly wipe the bowl dry.
• Sift the sugar and powdered milk into the chilled bowl, then add the cold cream and vanilla. Whip the mixture on high speed until stiff, but smooth peaks form, about 2 minutes. If you accidentally overwhip, the peaks will look like they are cracking. Add about a tablespoon more heavy cream and hand whip the frosting until it smooths out.
• The recipe makes enough frosting to generously top 24 cupcakes or to cover two 8-inch-round cakes, plus extra to pipe decorations. Unrefrigerated, the frosting will hold its shape for up to 6 hours.

QUICK FLUFFY FROSTING

Steps:

• Beat on high 4 to 6 min. or until mixture forms soft peaks.

COOL WHIPPED FROSTING

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine pudding mix with milk and vanilla. Mix until smooth. Gently fold in whipped topping until no streaks remain. Spread evenly over cake.
