Every time I make a cake, I dread making the frosting.
Don’t get me wrong, I love the fact that I can sample the frosting as much as my heart desires (and my heart desires a lot of frosting) but I just hate how much icing sugar I need to put in, and how it would probably be cheaper to buy the frosting in the containers..
Well, I decided that I should just stop complaining, and do something about my frosting crisis. And I’m glad I did.
This frosting was a little runny, I may add more icing sugar next time, but boy was it easy. If you are pressed for time making a cake, I would recommend making this icing.

Yes! This sounds like an amazing idea!

Mmm, great idea to use greek yogurt for frosting! My fave easy frosting is to make a cream cheese frosting but then fold in a container of cool whip. It makes it so much lighter, and less cloyingly sweet.

Is icing sugar expensive where you are?? It's pretty cheap here!
Love the use of greek yogurt though..that bit of tang sounds fabulous!

Cathleen , that's why I seldom make cake since I don't really like to make the frosting 😛 Your yogurt frosting is such a nice idea ! Maybe add some whipping cream to make it much stable ? 😀

Thanfully I'm not a big fan of cake frosting too, but this is a different one. Infact there's a dessert from India which has very thick yoghurt, sugar and saffron.
