Quick, easy, and delicious buttercream that you'll be eating out of the bowl with a spoon!

Instructions

  1. Prepare a stand mixer with a whisk attachment.

  2. Whisk butter until creamy.

  3. Reduce speed to low and add in icing sugar 1 cup at a time until well blended.

  4. Increase speed to med and beat for 3 minutes.

  5. Add vanilla and 2tbsp cream and continue to beat on medium for 1 minute.

  6. Add more cream as needed until desired consistency is reached (I added all 4).

  7. I whipped this for a few minutes longer as I was determined to get rid of the graininess.

  8. Frost on a cool cake and chill. *This made enough to frost the rosette cake pictured but would likely be too much if you're just looking to do a regular frosting on a 2 layer cake. If so, I would suggest cutting this recipe in half.
