Cookie frosting question...?!


Question:

Cookie frosting question...?

I want to make these cup cakes for a pre-wedding party for my cousin. I saw them being made breifly on tv but I didn't catch the recipe for the frosting on the top and there is no recipe on the website. It looks very light and fluffy and when it was put on the cupcakes it was done by putting the frosting in a plastic bag and then cutting the corner and squeezing it out to make the teired look, so I know it is not very thick. What recipie do you think it is or what would be good with the cupcake? Here's the website, thanks! http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/recipes/...

Lol I watched that on TV the other night too! Gotta love Paula!
I believe that topping is homemade whipped cream. You can just buy cool whip or the ready whip. But if you want to make it homemade, Here's the recipe I use:

1 carton of heavy cream
1 teaspoon of vanilla
2 boxes of powdered sugar

Pour heavy cream in mixing bowl, mix in vanilla, then on medium speed start mixing in powder sugar a cup at a time.
If it doesn't seem to be getting thick enough, just add more sugar. Its very rich ( like most of Paula Deen's sweets lol) , but very tasty!

I'm not sure how much you'll need to make, but its very simple,If you want to make different amounts, just add a teaspoon of vanilla to each batch. Just get heavy cream and keep adding sugar until its the thickness you want.

Good luck, and Happy Baking!

Ps. It takes a lot of mixing so dont give up thinking you messed up lol
