Start by whipping 1 stick, room temperature butter in the bowl of a stand mixer with the whisk attachment at medium speed.
Scrape down the sides of the mixing bowl and repeat this process 3 times until the butter is whipped and lighter in color.
After the butter becomes fluffy, add powdered sugar in half-cup increments.
Add the vanilla extract and whip until it's well combined.
Use this frosting on cupcakes, sugar cookies, or any baked goods that need an upgrade.
