When my mom was the seminary teacher while I was in high school, she made it a tradition to bake each student a cake for their birthday. She always bake a sheet cake with this whipped buttercream frosting on top and hence the name "Seminary Frosting". Birthday cake was an interesting breakfast at 6:00am but I don't remember anyone ever complaining! :-)
3 Tbsp flour
1 cup milk (skim is fine)
1 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla
In a saucepot, whisk flour into milk. Stir constantly over medium heat until milk is thickened. Remove from heat, cover with lid, and allow to cool. In a stand mixer, beat butter, sugar and vanilla until light and fluffy; approximately 10-15 minutes. Beat long enough that the sugar is no longer grainy in the frosting but be careful not to overbeat or the bonds will break down. Fold milk mixture into sugar mixture. Use to frost 24 cupcakes or 1 sheetcake.
