Buttercream Icing is one of the most well liked of recent trending meals in the world. It’s enjoyed by millions daily. It is easy, it is fast, it tastes yummy. They’re nice and they look wonderful. Buttercream Icing is something which I’ve loved my entire life.
To begin with this recipe, we have to first prepare a few components. You can cook buttercream icing using 7 ingredients and 7 steps. Here is how you can achieve that.
The ingredients needed to make Buttercream Icing:
Prepare 1 & 1/2 cups butter (at room temperature)
Make ready 1 & 1/2 cups shortening (regular or butter flavored)
Take 6 cups powered sugar
Take 6 tbsp heavy whipping cream
Get 3 tsp vanilla extract
Make ready 1 tsp almond extract (optional)
Prepare 1/4 tsp salt
Instructions to make Buttercream Icing:
Start by whipping your butter and shorting (electric mixer is a must) mix for at least 5 minutes. You'll be able to tell that it is done when the butter turns white. (The mixing here is crucial!) side note the butter you see here is pure Irish butter, made from grass fed cows. Now, the butter you use does not have to be this brand, just make sure it is a pure, high grade butter.
By one cup at a time, SIFT and add your powered sugar. (Sifting your sugar is also very important, to get that super smooth texture) side note Domino brand works well…Ive used off brand sugar multiple times and it just never turns out the same. Key words to look for are PURE CANE SUGAR 😉
Once all of your sugar is incorporated, add salt and mix for about 5 minutes.
Add your cream, vanilla, and almond extract. Continue mixing for another 3-5 minutes.
You can also add food coloring at this time! Mix until color is fully blended.
Enjoy!!
