EASIEST, MOST DELICIOUS MERINGUE BUTTERCREAM
I have tried every meringue buttercream recipe I could get my hands on over the years. I make it to decorate all our children's (and husband's) cakes and cupcakes. This is my recipe. It is easy, quick, and perfect: perfect for frosting, decorating, and eating. It is delicious. This makes a generous amount. You will not run out when frosting and decorating two 9 inch round cakes.

Steps:
- Place the egg whites and sugar into a metal bowl and set over a pan filled with about 2 inches of simmering water. Heat, stirring frequently, until the temperature of the egg whites reaches 140 degrees. They will feel very hot to the touch.
- Transfer the heated egg whites and sugar to a large mixing bowl or stand mixer. Mix at high speed (or as high as you can go without egg flying out of the bowl) until they have reached their maximum volume, 5 to 10 minutes. Mix on medium or medium-high speed while pinching off small pieces of butter and throwing them in. Mix in vanilla if using. The buttercream may look like it is breaking down, but keep on mixing and it will come back together.

MERINGUE BUTTERCREAM FROSTING
One hallmark of meringue buttercream is that it spreads like a dream. This versatile version is flavored very simply with vanilla. The Dog Cake, Owl Cake, and Fish Cake each require one recipe of the frosting, although you'll have some left over after frosting the owl and fish. Buttercream freezes well, so save it for another day.

Steps:
- Place sugar, egg whites, and salt in a bowl set over a pot of simmering water. Whisk until sugar dissolves and mixture reaches 160 degrees.
- Transfer egg-white mixture to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, and beat on medium speed 5 minutes. Increase speed to medium-high, and beat until stiff, glossy peaks form and meringue has cooled, about 6 minutes. Reduce speed to medium, and add butter, 1 piece at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla. Use immediately. Or refrigerate, covered, up to 3 days; bring to room temperature, and beat with a mixer on low speed until smooth before using.

VERSATILE BUTTERCREAM FROSTING
This is a copycat recipe from another one I saw on here-- but not a duplicate, because this is intended to be made for frosting than for bonbons (though it certainly could be used that way.) By "extract", vanilla extract is the most commonly used one for traditional buttercream flavor. But this is a versatile recipe: you want almond-y buttercream? Use almond extract. Fruity buttercream? Try orange, strawberry, or pineapple extract. Why not chocolate extract or peppermint extract! Chocolate and vanilla extracts together taste great too. Frosts about 20-24 cupcakes or one 8" two-layer cake.

Steps:
- Put butter, cream, and salt into a pot and heat almost to a simmer, stirring often.
- Turn off the stove and place the pot on a trivet where you'll be working.
- Add 3/4 tsp extract of your choice and stir.
- If using food coloring, add it now and also stir.
- Add 4 cups powdered sugar.
- Stir, then knead until smooth and all the powdered sugar has been absorbed.
- Put the whole thing into a large container for now and wait for it to cool to room temperature. (DO NOT REFRIDGERATE! This will cause it to set.).
- After it has cooled enough, put into a pastry bag for decorating or large-nozzle one to frost cupcakes. Or frost your cake with it. (Or eat it out of the container if having a sugar fit.).
