any other frostings besides buttercream for cupcakes?
Making cupcakes for my DS for school. It's my 1st time doing this as he just started school. I'm nervous
Anyway, I was going to make the vanilla cupcakes someone posted a while back. But what do I do for frosting? I'd rather not use buttercream frosting bc it just looks so unhealthy (so much butter). Any other alternatives I can use for frosting?
Thanks.

you can do a swiss meringue buttercream, that has a lot of egg whites and less butter in it. Or you can find a buttercream recipe and use half crisco or another type of shortening, but man oh man, buttercream is soooo good. so so good.
