Time 30m

Yield 80

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 teaspoon lemon juice, or as needed
4 cups white sugar
2 cups egg whites
5 cups unsalted butter, cut into cubes
2 tablespoons pure vanilla extract
ΒΌ teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Wipe the bowl of an electric stand mixer and the whisk attachment with lemon juice to remove any trace of grease. Add sugar and egg whites to the bowl.
  • Whisk sugar and egg whites together in the bowl of the stand mixer over simmering water, whisking constantly but gently, until temperature reaches 140 degrees F (60 degrees C), about 10 minutes. Return bowl to the stand mixer.
  • Whisk sugar-egg white mixture in the stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment until mixture is thick, glossy, and temperature of outside of bowl is room temperature. Change attachment to the paddle attachment and continue mixing on low speed. Add butter, 1 cube at a time; mix until silky-smooth. If mixture curdles, continue mixing and it will return to smooth.
  • Pour vanilla extract and sprinkle salt into butter-sugar mixture; beat until fully incorporated.

I don't like the taste of this buttercream. It's too bland for my taste.

This buttercream is too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar if you prefer a less sweet buttercream.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my buttercream turned out grainy. I followed the recipe exactly, but it still didn't turn out right.

This buttercream is very time-consuming to make. It took me over an hour to make it, but it was worth the effort.

I had some trouble getting the buttercream to the right consistency. It was too runny at first, but I added more powdered sugar and it turned out fine.

This buttercream is a little sweet for my taste, but it's still very good. I would recommend using less sugar if you prefer a less sweet buttercream.
