Some strawberry frosting recipes use jam, and some use freeze-dried. It's the icing on the cake, literally, and frankly sometimes I could take or leave the cake itself. At Taste of Home, we've shared dozens of recipes for frosting from scratch, and one of my absolute favorites (and one of the easiest of the bunch) is strawberry buttercream frosting. It's rich yet fluffy and not too sweet, with a delightfully creamy butter base. This should only take a minute or two.
