Try Swiss Meringue Icing (which I started doing years ago because my candy thermometer broke and I wanted to make italian meringue icing - my recipe was bumped the other day by Raven)... OR try adding cream cheese to the butter... not enough to make it a cream cheese icing but it just adds a creamier touch and it fluffs better. I don't have exact measurements, next time I make it I'll work out exact measurements. It happened through accident (as all good things do!) I was going to make cream cheese icing and didn't have the exact quantities needed so I thought I'd give it a try... it made the best frosting I've ever made. Another good one is chocolate buttercream... can be white or dark... they are delish as well...
I made nutella cream cheese icing the other day and it was DIVINE!
