Fluffy Vanilla Frosting image

Steps:

  • With an electric mixer, beat butter on medium-high speed until pale and creamy, about 2 minutes.
  • Reduce speed to medium. Add the confectioners' sugar, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition and scraping down sides of bowl as needed; after every two additions, raise speed to high and beat 10 seconds to aerate frosting, then return to medium-high. This process should take about 5 minutes. Frosting will be very pale and fluffy.
  • Add vanilla, and beat until frosting is smooth. If not using immediately, frosting can be refrigerated up to 10 days in an airtight container. Before using, bring to room temperature, and beat on low speed until smooth again, about 5 minutes.

1 1/2 cups (3 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
1 pound (4 cups) confectioners' sugar, sifted
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

VANILLA BUTTERCREAM FROSTING (FROM SPRINKLES CUPCAKES)

My sister got this buttercream frosting off the box of a Sprinkles Cupcake mix, made famous by Oprah. My sister said this was amazing. Update: I have finally gotten around to making this myself. I will say, that I don't like my desserts overly sweet and. though this was very good, I think I would probably decrease the amount of sugar for my personal taste. I'm glad everyone else has liked it as-is, though. :)

  • Spreading. This method is quick and easy, with little or no skill or special equipment needed. A small offset spatula works perfectly to spread the frosting, but you could also use any small knife with a broad blade, such as a butter knife or sandwich spreader.
  • Piping. If you're frosting a lot of cupcakes, or you want to make decorative shapes and patterns, use this method. Piping squeezes the frosting through a tip attached to the end of a pastry bag.
  • Dipping. Use this method when you want to put a thin glaze, such as chocolate ganache, over your cupcakes. Make a batch of chocolate ganache. It should be warm to the touch but not hot.
