VANILLA BUTTERCREAM FROSTING (FROM SPRINKLES CUPCAKES)



Vanilla Buttercream Frosting (From Sprinkles Cupcakes) image

My sister got this buttercream frosting off the box of a Sprinkles Cupcake mix, made famous by Oprah. My sister said this was amazing. Update: I have finally gotten around to making this myself. I will say, that I don't like my desserts overly sweet and. though this was very good, I think I would probably decrease the amount of sugar for my personal taste. I'm glad everyone else has liked it as-is, though. :)

Tips:

  • Gradually add the powdered sugar to the butter, beating on low speed until well combined, to avoid lumps.
  • Add a little milk or cream to adjust the consistency of the buttercream, making it thicker or thinner as desired.
  • For a richer buttercream, use heavy cream instead of milk.
  • To add flavor variations, try adding vanilla extract, almond extract, cocoa powder, or even fruit puree to the buttercream.
  • If you want a stiffer buttercream that holds its shape well, chill it for a few minutes before piping or frosting.
  • For a lighter and fluffier buttercream, whip it on high speed for a few minutes until it becomes light and airy.
