  3. Then, add the flour one cup at a time

  8. Prepare cake mix according to directions for whichever recipe you’re using.
  9. Fill paper liners about 1/2 – 2/3 full of batter.

  11. Add vanilla and two tablespoons of milk. Mix well.
  12. Add the flour and mix on low speed until mostly combined. Then bump up the speed to medium-high and mix well.

  14. Add one cup of powdered sugar and mix on low speed until mostly combined. Then mix on medium-high speed until fully incorporated. Mix for one more minute.
  15. If the frosting is too thin, add powdered sugar 1/2 cup at a time until the desired consistency is reached. But if the frosting is too thick, add milk one table spoon at a time until the desired consistency is reached.
