2. Frosting- Cream together butter, and peanut butter until well incorporated next add in meringue powder, 1 tablespoon of milk, and 1 cup of powdered sugar at a time until you get the consistency you want. (You may use all of your powdered sugar, or you may not. Depending on how you want your consistency to be)
