Categories     dessert

Total Time 7 minutes

Prep Time 7 minutes

Yield 3 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 3

3 ounces pasteurized egg whites
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 cups confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • In large bowl of stand mixer combine the egg whites and vanilla and beat until frothy. Add confectioners' sugar gradually and mix on low speed until sugar is incorporated and mixture is shiny. Turn speed up to high and beat until mixture forms stiff, glossy peaks. This should take approximately 5 to 7 minutes. Add food coloring, if desired. For immediate use, transfer icing to pastry bag or heavy duty storage bag and pipe as desired. If using storage bag, clip corner. Store in airtight container in refrigerator for up to 3 days.

PERFECT VANILLA CRUSTING BUTTERCREAM ICING FOR SUGAR CO…



Perfect Vanilla Crusting Buttercream Icing for Sugar Co… image

I recommend using a crusting buttercream when decorating buttercream sugar cookies. This allows the buttercream to form an outside crust, giving them a bit more protection from getting accidentally squished. This is essential if you plan to transport these cookies from your house to another location or if you want to stack or seal them.

Categories     Dessert

Total Time 65 minutes

Prep Time 60 minutes

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup room temperature unsalted butter
1 cup vegetable shortening such as Crisco
2 lbs. plus 1 cup powdered sugar
2 tsp. clear vanilla extract
2-4 tbsp. give or take room temperature whole milk

Steps:

  • In your electric mixer, use the paddle attachment to mix the butter and vegetable shortening together. 
  • Slowly mix in the powdered sugar, only adding as much as your electric mixer can handle at a time.
  • Mix in the vanilla extract and 2 tbsp. of milk. If the mixture is too stiff, add more milk. I prefer a consistency of smooth peanut butter for cookies that have a lot of line work and a slightly stiffer consistency for piping flowers.
