  • 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.
    Full Recipe: preppykitchen.com/vanilla-but...
    Vanilla Buttercream may seem beyond simple but I get a surprising number of questions from bakers everywhere about it. So let’s set the record straight with perhaps the most ubiquitous and variable frosting there is! Let me know how you enjoy this recipor have more questionse; historically, I have found it to be a crowd pleaser.

    INGREDIENTS
    ▢1 tbsp vanilla 15mL
    ▢1 lb confectioner's sugar 454g
    ▢1 cup unsalted butter 225g, room temperature
    ▢3 tbsp heavy whipping cream 45mL
    ▢1/2 tsp salt
    Instructions
    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.
    Notes:
    Sift your powdered sugar to avoid clogging piping tips.
    Scrape the bowl down; to help ensure even consistency throughout.
    You can use almost anything to flavor buttercream, fruit juice, coffee, orange blossom or rose water, melted chocolate, or Oreos!
    If your buttercream has been sitting for a while or was chilled and brought back to room temperature it's always a good idea to give it a quick whip to restore it's consistency.
    If you're looking for a very spreadable and very smooth icing, you can add the full amount of cream in (and maybe even a bit more).

    I know this is late but... If you really want white you should add a tiny amount of violet gel colouring. About the tip of a toothpick or less depending on the amount of buttercream you have. Yellow & purple are opposites on the colour wheel so they cancel each other out 😀

    Thank you so much for your thorough explanations. I've been trying to follow at least 3 other tutorials over the last three years ('cause I make one yearly cake), and only by following yours, I've finally pulled up a perfect Italian buttercream. You've solved my doubts and fears about the consistency drop when adding the butter, how to wake the batter when it has sat in the fridge, and the right way to check if the syrup was ready. Then, indirectly, you've made my daughter-in-law the happiest child ever with her flowery buttercream decorated cake. My wallet is even more pleased because I didn't have to buy such an expensive cake at the local bakery. I'm grateful at so many levels :) Cheers!

    Just finished making the most wonderful buttercream for 4 cakes!!,!(3 separate bdays and a funeral) over the July 4 week. Buttercream is so simple with just three ingredients in the back of every powdered sugar bag. But it’s all these details the preppy kitchen offers that makes it go from plain buttercream to superb buttercream. “Low and slow” is my new motto. I actually washed the dishes and swept and mop the kitchen floor while the mixer was slowly making my perfect icing.

Well I TRIED IT and it was silky, sweet with no grit. My vanilla was pure but not the best brand. So ill fix that. But i loved the recipe and its a keeper. Im not even a vanilla lover so that says it all. Thanks!!

    YES! Ok, I finally made something from a TH-cam video.
    The icing is wonderful, super silky yet still fluffy. The only thing I did different was add about half as much vanilla (I didn't have a great kind and I don't really like the taste of vanilla). I made it as per the recipe besides that. It's delicious, especially after it's sat for a few hours, and I'd definitely use it again. ❤️

    Hi John,
    I m grateful I have managed to bake all my childhood favourites from yr channel. Yours always turnout best at the first try itself . The fruit tart and vanilla cake was a real nostalgic trip back in time. Ok , I am from a tropical country wt high humidity and warm weather all year round. Even the durable American buttercream melts within few minutes outside the fridge .. I ve seen other recepis on a firmer durable butter cream but I would love to see your recepi for butter cream cake for the tropics ... interestingly during my childhood the butter cream cakes didn’t have much meltdown issue ... believe it or not I really think global warming has even impacted the buttercream durability in the tropics. Thanx in advance

    John, I made the icing this evening and it turned out great...! I added Hersheys Gold bar as my flavor and it was AMAZING. Thanks so much for sharing...!

    Before vanilla beans became sky high in price I bought a bulk bunch of high quality beans and a large bottle of Everclear (which I think is illegal in CA). I split the beans, put them all in the bottle and put the bottle in my spice cabinet. I shook the bottle every time I used a spice so it was combined regularly. This has been soaking and sitting since early 2010 and the liquid is darker than I drink my coffee and smells like heaven. I have a huge bottle of high quality vanilla that cost so very little. When the beans come back down in price do try this. It only takes a few months to get a usable vanilla and it only gets better with age.

    One of the first things my mom taught me to make. I think I used regular milk, instead of heavy cream, and it was still wonderful. I also would add powdered cocoa(unsweetened) as a variation. I'm certainly no expert though! One question: I can't remember~ Does this frosting need to be refrigerated? I also had that question for the Italian buttercream icing, in your other video. Thanks for these! They've become my new addiction during this time of social distancing!
