1 1/2 cups (375 ml) unsalted butter, softened

1/3 cup (75 ml) unbleached all-purpose flour

1 cup (250 ml) milk

• The seeds of ¼ vanilla bean or
• 1/2 teaspoon (2.5 ml) vanilla extract

In a saucepan, melt 60 ml (¼ cup) of the butter. Add the flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add the milk and vanilla and bring to a boil, stirring with a whisk. Simmer gently for about 1 minute.

Pour into a bowl, cover with plastic wrap directly on the mixture to prevent a crust from forming and let cool at room temperature.

Add the sugar and the remaining butter and beat with an electric mixer for about 5 minutes or until the frosting is smooth and creamy.
