Old Fashioned Brown Sugar Frosting made without powdered sugar. Brown Sugar Vanilla Buttercream Frosting made without powdered sugar is my new favorite frosting recipe! I love that this recipe is made without powdered sugar. Up until a couple years ago I had no idea you could even make frosting without powdered sugar but now I frequently make vanilla frosting using brown sugar or regular sugar. This recipe is pretty forgiving & easy to make. You cook the flour and milk together on the stove (as shown above) until it becomes a thick paste then you add it to the butter/sugar mixture to make a nice whipped vanilla brown sugar buttercream frosting. If I am using the frosting to pipe on to cupcakes I sometimes add extra sugar to thicken it up more so you can add extra sugar if you need to when making it. Note: This recipe will not taste 100% like powered sugar frosting recipes you may be used to, to me it is more whipped, creamy, & buttery. It is a little less sweet. I love it! Sometimes I find regular vanilla frosting to be too sweet. The frosting is also known to have a grainy texture to it due to the sugar being more coarse but I like it! I always refrigerate whatever I frost, like the Vanilla Cupcakes pictured. Keeping it in the frig also helps to keep the frosting firm. Recipe frosts a whole batch of cupcakes for me, about 18 cupcakes. Brown Sugar Frosting made without powdered sugar
