Marshmallow Fluff Buttercream

Peppermint Marshmallow Fluff Buttercream Frosting

Oh my yum. This is such an EASY recipe, and it is also crazy easy to customize. I had to use up some candy canes from Christmas, so I made a peppermint flavored marshmallow cream frosting. If you think buttercream can be too sweet, this frosting is for you! It is not quite as sweet as buttercream but just as tasty. I put this on a cake from a cake mix to jazz it up a bit.
