- For the frosting: Using an electric mixer, whip the cream till smooth. Add in the jam and mix till incorporated. Add in the powdered sugar and vanilla. Continue whipping till the frosting is spreadable. (If the frosting is too thick, add in a little lowfat milk. If the frosting is too thin add in a little more powdered sugar.) This makes about 3 c. of frosting.
