Preparation

Step 1

In the bowl of your electric mixer, or with a hand mixer, beat the butter until smooth and well blended.

Step 2

Beat in the vanilla extract and peppermint extract (if using) and marshmallow creme.

Step 3

With the mixer on low speed, gradually beat in the sugar. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.

Step 4

Then, on high speed, beat filling until it is light and fluffy (about 3-5 minutes). Add a little milk or liquor (if filling is too thick) or confectioners sugar (if filling is too thin) to get the right spreading consistency.

Step 5

Stir in crushed candy canes or cinnamon chips.

Can be used as an icing or cookie filling.
