Vanilla Buttercream Frosting image

This American buttercream recipe only uses five ingredients! It's so delicious and easy to make, you'll never buy frosting again!!

Provided by Chelsey White

Categories     Frosting & Fillings

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups unsalted butter, room temperature (452g; 1 lb. box)
1 Tbsp vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste (12g)
1/2 tsp fine salt (3g)
7 cups powdered sugar (907g; 2 lb. bag)
3 Tbsp heavy cream or whipping cream (45g)

Steps:

  • Beat 2 cups of unsalted butter on a medium speed for 30 seconds until smooth with a paddle attachment / stand mixer or a hand mixer.
  • Mix in 1 Tbsp vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste and 1/2 tsp salt on a low speed.
  • Slowly add in 7 cups of powdered sugar while mixing slowly on the lowest setting. Half way through add in 3 Tbsp of heavy cream or milk to make it easier to mix. I like to place a kitchen towel over my mixer to contain any powdered sugar clouds.
  • Mix on low until the ingredients are fully incorporated and the desired consistency is reached.
  • If the frosting is too thick, add in additional cream (1 Tbsp at a time). If the frosting is too thin, add in more powdered sugar (quarter of a cup at a time).
  • If you plan to color the buttercream, add in the gel food coloring once the frosting is fully mixed and beat on low until it reach the desired colored.
  • To make the frosting extra smooth, stir it by hand with a rubber spatula for a minute or two right before you use it. It's an arm workout, but it's worth it! Push the frosting back and forth and spread it around the side of the bowl. This will push out any extra air and make it easier to smooth onto cakes or pipe with.

RETHINKING AMERICAN BUTTERCREAM: STILL QUICK AND EASY, JUST BETTER
2020-04-15 The majority of American buttercream recipes take a "more is more" approach with a 1:2 ratio of butter to powdered sugar by weight, while others use a 2:3 ratio to dial back the sweetness. But that ratio can be dropped all the way down to a 1:1 combination of butter and powdered sugar, and it will still produce a thick and fluffy frosting.
