Quick, easy and tastes delicious. It's my go-to now and if you're looking to make it chocolate rather than vanilla, simply add about 1/2 - 1 cup of cocoa powder ❤

I've used this recipe a couple of times now and it's always so good. The only thing I would change is putting the water in, I find that even if you only use one table spoon of hot water it makes it too soft so I always end up putting more icing sugar in. Overall I would recommend this recipe to anyone but I would tell them to skip the water.

So good! Really was the icing of the cake! (Ha, get it?)

Method
Beat the butter until smooth, pale and fluffy. Gradually beat in the Chelsea Icing Sugar, half a cup at a time.
Add the vanilla essence (or other flavoured essence and/or colouring of your choice), with enough of the hot water to make a creamy mixture, beating between each addition until light and fluffy. Pipe onto cooled cupcakes or spread over a cooled cake.
Note: When adding food colouring, add it a drop at a time and mix well before adding more, otherwise you might end up with a brighter result than you desire! Colours tend to darken a little as the icing sets too.
