This is a great all-purpose frosting to use on cakes, cupcakes or cookies. It has an excellent flavor in the vanilla version, but you can vary the flavor however you like, with lemon, chocolate, liqueur, cinnamon, etc. It makes a dense, slightly gritty frosting, so this is not what you want if you're looking for a silky texture or lightness.

I made this once as a dip for a platter of in-season summer fruits for a party and it was devoured very quickly.
