Easy Buttercream Frosting Recipe
Ingredients:
• 1 c salted butter, room temperature
• 3 – 4 c powdered sugar (I use 3 ½ c)
• 1 tbsp vanilla bean paste
• 2 tbsp heavy cream
Instructions:
1. Place butter in bowl, whip until white and fluffy, occasionally stopping the mixer to scrape down the sides
2. Once butter is white and fluffy, add about half of the powdered sugar slowly, then the vanilla, then the remaining powdered sugar
3. Add heavy cream until desired consistency is reached
4. Use frosting immediately or store in the fridge. If storing in the fridge whip again before using
Note: I use salted butter because I like the flavor it provides, but if you prefer use unsalted and add ¼ tsp salt.
Shelf stable?
Thank you soo much. Love your approach. Question how much powdered sugar do you use for this recipe? Thank you
I’d like to start with God bless you for taking the time to teach us first timers……. Absolutely easy and clear directions…… But what happened to measuring the amount of sugar, vanilla, and smiles….. Other than that you are wonderful, thank you! JV.C.T…..P.S 1 solid thank you for not judging….😊
I made cupcakes using your french vanilla Nothing Bundt Cake hack and this buttercream frosting. Delicious!!!!
