Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, add butter, vanilla extract, almond extract, and salt. Cream together on medium speed for 30 seconds, or until blended together.

Step 2

On medium/low speed begin adding in powdered sugar 1/2 cup at a time until all is incorporated.

Step 3

Turn mixer to high speed, and beat for 2-3 minutes until light and fluffy. Add food coloring, if desired (divide into different bowls for multiple colors).

Step 4

Spread on top of cooled sugar cookies or place frosting in a large piping bag with a metal tip (see post above for my favorite tips) to achieve a more intricate design.

Step 5

Makes 2 cups of frosting, which is enough to generously frost about (24) 2.5" circle cookies.
