HOW TO MAKE BUTTERCREAM FROSTING

Today we’re covering how to make homemade buttercream frosting.  Actually, we’re covering just how EASY it is to make your own frosting right at home.  If you’ve been buying store-bought frosting, you’ll want to ditch it after seeing just how easy it is to make your own.

The best part?  This recipe makes a great base for so many different flavor variations too!  So, let’s get started.



You’ll start out with two sticks of unsalted butter softened to room temperature.  I use unsalted butter in all of my recipes because the amount of salt in salted butter can vary quite a bit between different brands.  By using unsalted butter, you control the amount of salt in your recipe.

Easy, right?  The best thing about this recipe is that you can change it up to make different flavors of frosting.  I’ve included 4 different variations below, but keep in mind that you can do so much more with this recipe.  A few easy ways to change it up is to add different extracts like mint, almond, lemon, etc. and a little food coloring.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup (230 grams) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
  • 3 cups (360 grams) powdered sugar
  • 2-3 tablespoons heavy cream or heavy whipping cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • pinch of salt adjust to taste

Instructions

  1. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or in a large mixing bowl using an electric mixer, beat the butter on medium speed until smooth.
  2. Add in the powdered sugar and mix on low speed at first, then increase to medium speed and continue mixing for another 1-2 minutes until the mixture starts to come together.
