  • Cream the softened butter until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and pureed strawberries beating at medium speed until blended. Continue mixing on medium speed another 3 to 4 minutes, scraping the sides of the bowl occasionally Slow down the mixer to very slow (#2 on a KitchenAid) and mixing another 1 to 2 minutes. This will eliminate air pockets. The buttercream will become very smooth. If the buttercream is too thin add more powdered sugar, if too thick add more puree or a bit of milk. Any extra strawberry puree can be spread between the cake layers Makes 4 to 4 1/2 cups
