- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter at room temperature
- 1/2 cup 100% pumpkin puree
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 5 cups powdered sugar
Slowly cream together the butter and the pumpkin with a handheld mixer or stand mixer with the whisk attachement. (Note: I wasn't able to get it to a completely smooth mixture even after several minutes of my mixer on medium, so just get it as close to combined as possible.)
Beat in the vanilla, then the cinnamon, then the nutmeg.
Slowly add the powdered sugar about a cup at a time until you are able to get it to the right consistency.
