Updated: Jul 10, 2020
For most people, buttercream frosting is considered a MUST HAVE for cakes, cupcakes, and desserts alike. There is something about making your very own frosting that tastes better than just using the stuff from the can. The basic buttercream is simple; use butter, sugar, vanilla, and milk/water. This recipe is super fluffy, super easy to make, and can be used on almost any dessert! Let's get cooking!
Ingredients:
-4 3/4 cup powdered sugar
-2 tsp. vanilla extract
-1 cup(2 sticks) salted softened butter
-2-6 tbsp milk and/or water, depending on desired consistency.
Directions: Beat softened butter for about 2 minutes in an electric mixer until fluffy. Begin adding powdered sugar one cup at a time and beating on medium speed until all powdered sugar is used up. Make sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula periodically. Add in vanilla and 1 tablespoon of water/milk. Continue adding milk/water until it reaches the desired stiffness. Whip on medium-high speed for about 5 minutes for the ultimate fluffy frosting. Use as desired. Enjoy!
Note: This buttercream recipe is especially great for cakes, cupcakes, and cookies!
