THE BEST HOMEMADE BUTTERCREAM ICING RECIPE



The Best Homemade Buttercream Icing Recipe image

This is a recipe I have used for cakes and cupcakes since 1999. Buttercream icing recipes are so much easier to make homemade than you may have thought.

Provided by Crystal VanTassel-Lopez

Total Time 15 minutes

Prep Time 5 minutes

Cook Time 10 minutes

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 5

1  1/2 cups solid shortening- Crisco brand preferably
1 stick butter (at room temperature)
2 tsp. vanilla
(1) 32 oz. bag confectioners sugar
1/3 cup milk (or try heavy whipping cream)

Steps:

  • Cream butter and shortening with an electric mixer until well blended.   A stand-alone mixer works best. This is the one I have and LOVE!
  • Add the vanilla and mix until blended.   At this point your icing should look like this:
  • Gradually add sugar one cup at a time, beating well on medium speed. Stop in between each cup to scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl.
  • The icing will start to get dry, you can gradually add your milk or heavy whipping cream. Keep mixing until everything is fluffy and smooth.  If you would like to color the icing, this is the stage you would do that. Just add the gel coloring and mix on medium speed until well blended.
  • You can now place the icing in a bag for piping your cupcakes or ice your cake.
