How to Make Powdered Milk Icing

Powdered milk frosting is practical, tasty, and perfect for decorating treats. It has a firm texture, doesn’t melt at room temperature, and is easy to make, with a light flavor that everyone enjoys. See below the list of all ingredients and required quantities. And then, a very complete preparation method with details of the recipe.

Recipe Ingredients:

3 ½ tablespoons of chilled heavy cream (50 ml)
¾ cup of chilled whipped cream (200 ml)
7 ounces of chilled sweetened condensed milk (200 grams)
5 tablespoons of powdered milk (e.g., Ninho)

TIP: The colder the ingredients, the better the finish!

Instructions:

Tip: Keep the whipped cream in the refrigerator overnight, and 20 minutes before using it, place it in the freezer for the best result!

First, place the chilled heavy cream, chilled condensed milk, powdered milk, and chilled whipped cream into a mixer.

Next, beat at maximum speed for about 5 minutes, until stiff peaks form. The longer you beat, the better the consistency will be!

Additional tip: In a stand mixer, 5 minutes is sufficient. With a hand mixer, you’ll need to beat for a longer time.

Finally, transfer the frosting to a piping bag with a tip and use it to decorate cakes and pies.

After that, place the decorated cake in the refrigerator for a few minutes to help the frosting set firmly.

In conclusion, this frosting stays firm even outside the refrigerator and does not melt. However, it’s not recommended to use food coloring with this frosting, as it may affect the consistency.
