Yep! You can swap out whatever flavor extract you like, though if you go peppermint, go light. A little of that goes a long way.

This is the type of homemade frosting recipe I’ve been looking for. Can you tell me what kinda butter to use, unsalted or salted? Thanx for your response.
Jessica Fisher
Either one will work. I typically have salted on hand.

I added a cup of Ghirardelli unsweetened cocoa to the three cups powdered sugar and WOW! YUM!
Jessica Fisher
Yep, I did that with 1/2 cup Trader Joe’s cocoa powder and had the same thought.

Alexa
Would you please tell me which butter brand did you used for this recipe?:)
Jessica
As long as it is real butter (not margarine, not spread), any brand should be fine.
Cheryl
Could you substitute lemon extract for vanilla?
