Found a great recipe for frosting to ice E’s third birthday cake. After I finished the cake, he changed his mind and didn’t want a cow cake anymore. Can’t win with toddlers!
Vanilla Buttercream
- 1 cup softened butter
- 4 cups powdered sugar
- 1/4 c heavy cream
- 2 tsp vanilla
- Pinch of salt
Beat butter with the paddle attachment until light and fluffy.
Stop the mixer and add the remaining ingredients. Put the mixer on low until the sugar has moistened. Put the speed up to high and beat for 3-4 minutes, scraping the sides occasionally to ensure even texture.
Chocolate Buttercream
- 1 cup butter
- 3 cups powdered sugar
- 3/4 c cocoa powder
- 1/4 c heavy cream
- Pinch of salt
Follow the same steps as above
