This eggnog frosting puts a happy holiday spin on a classic buttercream frosting and comes together in just 10 minutes. The perfect finishing touch for your favorite holiday desserts!
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the butter, 1 cup powdered sugar, nutmeg, and salt on medium-high speed 3 minutes, or until very light and fluffy. Mix in the eggnog and vanilla. Add the remaining powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time, scraping the bowl in-between each addition, until the frosting is thick but still pipeable.
Transfer to a pastry bag and pipe onto cooled cupcakes or cookies. Garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a cinnamon stick, if desired.
Notes
