Buttercream Ingredients:
Butter 120 gram
Confectioners' sugar 500 gram 3 2/3 cup
Vanilla extract 1 teaspoon
Milk 1 tablespoon
You can make the buttercream while the cupcakes are in the oven or while they are cooling down. I usually start with it as soon as the cupcakes go in the oven so I have enough time :)
1. Put the butter in a kitchen machine and mix until the batter is fluffy
2. Add the sugar to the bowl and mix
3. Then add the vanilla extract and the milk
4. Mix until the batter is a creamy consistency, if it is to dry add some more milk
5. After the cupcakes are completely cold add the buttercream with a piping bag
6. Add some sugar toppings to your liking
I hope you like this recipe and give it a try :) And let me know how they turned out!
