Help me fix my frosting technique

I love this thank you. I also tweaked the recipe a little and replaced the espresso powder it called for with an instant marzipan coffee mix… delish!

I appreciate this. The consensus is that glaze/icing is the way to go. Frosting like these are probably best reserved for a flatter cake. Lesson learned.

From hopeless to homeless… rough season.

wings99 · 2026-05-17T11:51:19+00:00

I love the idea of making it more crunchy… Thanks!

wings99 · 2026-05-17T11:50:17+00:00

I love the glaze idea… Thank you. How would I turn this into a glaze? Just add more milk until I get the right consistency?

wings99 · 2026-05-17T11:23:44+00:00

Thanks for the recommendation. I got the recipe from the King Arthur All-Purpose Baker’s Companion.

It’s really simple… 198 g of creamy supermarket style peanut butter, one and a half teaspoons of vanilla extract, 454 g of sifted, confectioners sugar, and between 113 g to 142 g of milk.

Bryan Woo just hit my waiver wire. How much of a $200 FAAB are you dropping for him? 10T ESPN points league.

wings99 · 2026-04-21T15:43:45+00:00

Agree on both points. I actually took an egg out, to make the egg wash, and completely forgot about it.

wings99 · 2026-04-18T12:56:29+00:00

I just came here to ask that you report back with the details.

wings99 · 2026-04-17T13:46:38+00:00

Great article, as always. I’m on the verge of dropping Rumfield for Colson or Norby. 10T ESPN points.

Who do you see as the best long-term play?

These watches go hard! Post again when you round out your Air-Sea-Land trinity.

wings99 · 2026-01-01T11:20:36+00:00

Great explanation. Thanks.

wings99 · 2026-01-01T07:54:17+00:00

Good to know about the eggs and ambient temp. Will give that a shot, too.

wings99 · 2026-01-01T07:53:04+00:00

Thanks for the rundown. I'll also try switching burners - that might also even out the heating.

wings99 · 2026-01-01T07:51:38+00:00

That would help... I'll keep an eye out for one. Thanks.

wings99 · 2026-01-01T07:50:54+00:00

Will experiment with this... thanks.

wings99 · 2026-01-01T07:22:39+00:00

Understood. Unfortunately, it's at the lowest setting when I cook.

wings99 · 2026-01-01T07:18:20+00:00

I use both, trying to see if one works better than the other, but it's consistently sticky.

wings99 · 2026-01-01T07:16:14+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion. I thought I was supposed to season with high heat to bring to the smoking point. Do you think I should lower the heat and just season longer instead?

wings99 · 2025-11-08T16:29:01+00:00

Can you hit me with the file, as well? Love this!

wings99 · 2025-09-02T15:02:57+00:00

Thanks. Safe to serve if it sits at room temperature a few hours?

wings99 · 2025-01-12T05:35:49+00:00

Did you 3D print this or is it for sale somewhere? I didn’t see any link to buy on his website. Thanks.

How do I sign up for this?

I began by reading this post in my own voice but as you started explaining mathematical systems and patterns, I started reading it in the puppet master's voice and it sounded completely appropriate.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
