This is fluffy, delicious, melts in your mouth, and perfectly vanilla! This makes enough frosting for about 3 dozen cupcakes (with generous and lofty peaks of frosting!) or a double layer 9 inch cake.

This easy recipe involves slicing open a real vanilla bean pod, scraping up all the lovely vanilla specks and simmering them in some cream. Your kitchen will smell AMAZING.
