INSTRUCTIONS

1. Quickly whisk together 4 TBSP of the milk with the flour. This slurry will be somewhat thick, so whisk thoroughly to make it smooth. Press out any lumps with a flexible spatula, if necessary.

2. Whisk in the rest of the milk and transfer the mixture to a 2-quart heavy bottom saucepan. Bring to a simmer for about 30 seconds over medium heat, whisking the whole time.

3. Remove the pan from the stove and place plastic wrap directly against the milk's surface. Cool to room temperature.

4. Combine the butter sugar, salt, and vanilla in the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and mix at medium to high speed for 5 minutes.

5. Pour the cooled milk and flour mixture into the bowl and beat for another 5 minutes, or longer as needed to achieve a spreadable consistency.

Ices 24 cupcakes or one 9 inch layer cake.
