Peace on Earth on a Cupcake Frosting

Possibly why this frosting is so good?

5 T flour
1 c milk
1 c butter, softened
1 c sugar
2 t vanilla

Whisk flour and milk in a saucepan until smooth. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Cover and refrigerate. In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add chilled milk mixture;

the chilled mixture will be weird and gelatinous--don't worry

beat for 10 minutes or until fluffy. Stir in vanilla.

You can make this frosting chocolate too. Add about 1/2 c of cocoa powder when you add the vanilla. Less if you're not so into chocolate.
