ALMOND BUTTERCREAM FROSTING



ALMOND BUTTERCREAM FROSTING image

Categories     Nut     Dessert

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup butter, softened
3 cups powdered (confectioners') sugar
½ tsp almond extract
½ tsp vanilla extract
⅛ tsp salt
2 - 3 tablespoons milk

Steps:

  • I recommend using a stand mixer, if you have one, if you would also like to achieve the super light frosting feel. Even if you don't have one, you can still get that lightness, it will just involve you standing there with your hand mixer for a lot longer than you might want to stand there. In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter until it's a smooth consistency. Add in the powdered sugar, salt, and both extracts. Mix these well. Start adding in the milk a little at a time, especially if it becomes too difficult to mix the original mixture. Keep adding milk and beating the mixture until you reach your desired consistency. After you've added all the ingredients, add food coloring, if desired.

Tips:

  • Choose the right nut butter: Different nut butters have different flavors and textures. For a rich, creamy frosting, use a smooth nut butter like almond or cashew butter. If you prefer a more rustic frosting, use a chunky nut butter like peanut or hazelnut butter.
  • Add sweetness to taste: The amount of sweetener you add to your frosting will depend on your personal preference. If you like a sweeter frosting, add more sweetener. If you prefer a less sweet frosting, add less sweetener or omit it altogether.
  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients you use, the better your frosting will taste. Use pure maple syrup or honey instead of refined sugar, and use real vanilla extract instead of imitation vanilla.
  • Let the frosting chill before using: This will help the frosting to firm up and make it easier to spread or pipe.
  • Be creative! You can add other ingredients to your nut butter frosting to create different flavors. Try adding cocoa powder for a chocolate frosting, or cinnamon and nutmeg for a spiced frosting.

Conclusion:

Nut butter frosting is a delicious and versatile frosting that can be used on a variety of desserts. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own taste. With a few simple tips, you can make a nut butter frosting that is perfect for your next cake, cupcake, or cookie recipe.
