Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Prepare Strawberries: Wash and hull 1 cup of fresh strawberries, then puree them in a blender until smooth. Strain the fresh puree to remove excess liquid.
  2. Beat Butter: In a large mixing bowl, add ½ cup of softened unsalted butter. Whip on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Incorporate Marshmallow Creme: Add 1 cup of marshmallow creme to the whipped butter. Mix on low speed until fully combined for a fluffy consistency.
  4. Add Strawberry: Gently mix in the prepared strawberry puree, ensuring the frosting takes on a lovely blush-pink hue.
  5. Mix Dry Ingredients: Gradually add 1 cup of powdered sugar, mixing at low speed. Mix in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.
  6. Whip Frosting: Increase speed to medium-high and whip until smooth and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes, forming soft peaks.
  7. Chill if Necessary: If too soft, refrigerate covered for 10-15 minutes and whip again before use.
