1 cup creamy peanut butter
3 1/2 cups powdered sugar
4 tablespoons heavy whipping cream

In the bowl of a stand mixer add the butter and the peanut butter.

Turn the mixer speed to the lowest setting and slowly add the powdered sugar into the butter mixture and mix until everything is combined.
Use a rubber spatial and scrape the sides of the bowl so everything is at the bottom of the bowl.
Add the heavy cream, vanilla extract and salt and then turn the mixer speed up to medium-high speed.
Continue mixing the frosting for 10 minutes until you have the fluffy and creamy texture of buttercream frosting.
