If you like peanut butter, this frosting is for you! It was absolutley delicious. I put it on a chocolate cake made from a box mix and it transformed the cake into a chocolate, peanut butter masterpiece. I read many of the reviews which made me a little paranoid that I was getting myself into something too complicated, but I followed the recipe exactly, except I might have added a tiny bit more milk. (I just added milk until it was the consistency that I desired.) I would agree with all of the other readers- the key is to make sure the butter is room temperature. If it is, it just blends right in beautifully with the peanut butter. I have no idea why some people thought it was greasy. Perhaps as one reader suggested, maybe they used bargain peanut butter? I used Skippy and I see other readers used Jif with no problem. This recipe was fast and easy to make. I will never put ready-made frosting on a chocolate cake ever again!

Delicious! I used this frosting on a dark chocolate cake (two 9 inch pans). I used about 1 1/3 cup confectioners sugar and a 1 1/2 cup Wegman's peanut butter. I also substuted heavy cream for the milk.

This recipe was easy to make and easy to eat too! I added one extra tablespoon of milk to make it a little thinner, but it would have been delicious just as the recipe stated. It wasn't greasy at all!

Excellent recipe! Whip for longer than you might want to--it's worth it! Add more liquid if necessary--recipes won't necessarily be exactly how you prefer them. I thought it worked out VERY well and went nicely on brownies topped with a mini-reeses. YUM!

Turned out perfect, I halved the recipe and also added a couple of tablespoons of REAL maple syrup and tsp vanilla. I also used heavy whip cream in place of the milk. Fluffy and yummy!

This by far is one of the best frosting/icing recipes I have made. I can never get them to turn out right. I followed the recipe like it said and let it whip on high speed on my Kitchen Aide for a good 3-5 minutes. It is very tasty, even the dogs agree! (i let them lick the whip!) I am now waiting for the brownies to get done baking so I can try it on them. Thanks for a great recipe. *UPDATE* So yummy on the brownies! I had quite a bit left over so I put it on sliced apples. I always like peanut butter and apples for a snack, but this was even better.

I followed the recipe as written and did not end up with a light, fluffy frosting. Tasted good but final product was not what I expected.

YUM!!! I am a peanutbutter FANATIC and this was AMAZING. Perfect blend of sweetness and peanut butter flavor. I used it as one of three different frostings I used on banana cupcakes (recipe also from this site YUM). I had enough to frost 22 cupcakes and I have half of it left! Brownies here I come! (or i might just eat it with a spoon)

This turns out just as described -- sweet, but not too sweet. A perfect complement for my dark chocolate cake when regular icing is too much.

This recipe was good. I used it with peanutbutter cupcakes which was honestly way too much peanutbutter goin' around. But this portion of the finished product was good.

I have made this recipe twice now and it is perfect. I spread it over a batch of brownies and took it over to my friends house. Five girls ate that whole batch of brownies and the leftover frosting.

First time making this...great taste(kids are fighting over the leftovers now) and will make it again but it was to thick for my liking. But I think that was me and not the recipe. I would recommend it just how it is. ;)

Flavor - great. Texture? Not the fluffy frosting I was hoping for. Maybe I did something wrong, so I'll go back and recheck/redo to see if I have different results.
