I want to bake a cake, but I don't know how to make the frosting.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
To make a simple frosting, you'll need butter, powdered sugar, and a bit of milk or cream. Mix the butter and powdered sugar together until smooth, then add the milk until you get the desired consistency.<|im_end|>

What's the best way to get the frosting smooth and even on the cake?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
To get smooth and even frosting, make sure to use room temperature butter and powdered sugar. Also, try using an offset spatula or a turntable to spread the frosting evenly around the cake.<|im_end|>
