diy vanilla buttercream

This simple and delicious vanilla buttercream is perfect for frosting cakes and cupcakes.

Buttercream Frosting

vanilla (15 milliliters)

lb confectioner's sugar (454 grams)

unsalted butter (225 grams, room temperature)

tbsp heavy whipping cream (45 milliliters)

tsp salt

Whip the butter and salt for about a minute using a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. You can use a hand mixer instead if needed.

Sift in the confectioner’s sugar in several batches beating on low after each addition. Scrape the bowl down and repeat the process. 

Add a tablespoon of the cream while mixing on low then add the vanilla. Beat until you have an even, fluffy consistency. You can add more cream or milk if desired for a thinner consistency.

This simple and delicious vanilla buttercream frosting is perfect for frosting cakes and cupcakes. It’s so creamy and dreamy, you might just want to eat it plain! You can add any flavor you'd like too. I love rose water, orange blossom water, coffee, lemon and strawberry.

This is my first time, making buttercream frosting and it is so easy to follow, thank you JK

I used it for a deviled chocolate cake, and all who tried it loved it, I did add more confectioners sugar since the birthday girl likes her frosting sweet. Even my husband declared this recipe a winner. Thank you for the recipe!

Good icing recipe - I doubled the amount (in two batches) to crumb coat a many think layered 6” cake, the second batch when to decorating. In the future I’ll triple the recipe for a vintage cake.

John, I used your vanilla buttercream recipe on the weekend and felt the need to tell you that it's the best I have ever eaten. It was so deliciously creamy and not too sweet and also easy to make. After watching the video on how to make it, I had no idea that you could freeze the frosting. I will be doing that next time as I dont want to waste a mouthful of deliciousness.

This buttercream was amazing, thanks John!! I’m so happy I found you, you’re my go to for everything baking.

This is easy and so delicious! I made some, me and my mom LOVED it. I’m using this on all my cakes now.

Buttercream frosting is the only way to go. Whipped frosting is a communist plot. If you're going to use whipped frosting, don't even bother making a cake.

Loved it!  I did however use 1 t vanilla extract and 1 t almond extract as we prefer the almond favor in white buttercream.

This is my go to birthday cake icing recipe. I've used this recipe exclusively for a couple years now. 

Thanks for the recipe!

Love your buttercream recipe! Tried it on a chocolate zucchini cake and my family can’t stop eating it, especially my 3yo.

A big fan from the Philippines. I been following your youtube sessions for quite some time now. Your cake recipes are absolutely divine. I got an opportunity to make them but converted into a cupcake instead of cake. Same results. Divine!!! 

Question though, I didn't get a chance to do the buttercream frosting since you were using a paddle for the recipe. I don't have a paddle yet but only the beater. My smeg is enroute and is not here yet. Will there be any changes that I need to do in order to maintain the same consistency as your recipes?

How much of all ingredients for 24 cupcakes?

Hafaloha from Guam!!! I just love your cooking show!!! 10 star for you preppy kitchen❤️ Thank you🥰

First time using. Frosting that was not made by Betty (Crocker).  I used it on a chocolate sheet cake my Mom used to make.  This is so good.   I have been watching the YouTube videos and just decided I wanted to try this.  I am glad I did.  My husband and I have declared this Labor Day weekend as a Keto-free weekend and this cake is a perfect part of it.  Next up, one of the meringue butter creams.
