it is super simple to make and its so delicious.
ingredients
454 g of unsalted butter at room temperature
350 g of icing sugar
80 g of boiling water
2 teaspoons of vanilla
chocolate American buttercream recipe (easy, smooth, grain free)
• CHOCOLATE BUTTERCREAM ...
IMPORTANT NOTE
If you’re going to use this buttercream on cake reduce the boiling water to 60 g and you will have firmer buttercream .

Thank you for this recipe and technique! Just made this and it is so yummy! Reminds me of my Italian meringue buttercream, but so much easier to make. I really like the fact that powdered sugar isn’t all over the place. Has anyone tried making a chocolate version? I want to try different flavors now 😊

So if i make 24 cupcakes will i need to double the recipe? And also if i add color how do i add it so that it won’t make the icing more runnier?

@Natalieskitchen Год назад

Hi, if you are only decorating the cupcakes with single swirl like the video then one recipe should be enough but if you are doing high swirl then I would double the recipe. As for the coloring, I always use and recommend gel food coloring which won't change the consistency of the icing , hope this helps :)

@GilGonzalez90744 28 дней назад

Unsalted Butter (454 g): 454 grams of unsalted butter is approximately equal to 2 cups1. When baking, measuring by weight (grams) is more accurate, so using the weight measurement is recommended. Icing Sugar (350 g): 350 grams of icing sugar is approximately equal to 1 3/4 cups2. Again, measuring by weight ensures precision. Boiling Water (80 g): 80 grams of boiling water is roughly equivalent to 1/3 cup3. Remember that water density is close to 1 gram per milliliter, so this conversion is straightforward. Vanilla (2 teaspoons): 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract is about 0.0417 cups4. A teaspoon is a small unit, so it’s practical to use cups for larger quantities.

Hi. Thanks for the great recipe.i want to make this to cover a two layer 6 inch cake. How much do i need to make? And I'll reduce the water to 60g as you mentioned in the comments.

@Natalieskitchen Год назад

Hi, you're welcome If the layers aren't too thick then 1 recipe should be enough but if they are thick layers (tall cake) then I would do 1 1/2 recipe . It also depends on how much decorating you are doing on the cake. If you want do 1 1/2 recipe and You can always freeze leftover buttercream in an airtight container and use it another time . Hope this helps :)

@ruthmoralez1490 6 месяцев назад

Can I use heavy cream instead of water ???

@Natalieskitchen 6 месяцев назад

I don't recommend it because you will beat this buttercream for a long time and it is not recommended to overwhip Heavy cream :)

@sharonthompson5665 Год назад

I made a half batch today and there was still a gritty texture. It was also not as firm as yours. Do you have any clues as to what might have happened please?

@Natalieskitchen Год назад

-The water needs to be really boiling hot when added to the icing sugar so it melts it. -then this mixture needs to be cooled down completely before adding it to the butter. - you have to really whip it well after you drizzle the icing sugar mixture to the butter. - and if you leave the buttercream at room temperature in an airtight container for an hour or so it will firm up . You can also do it the day before. Hopefully those will help you :)

@akosuapiesie3385 Год назад

Can I use margarine since butter is expensive in my area?

@JustKayeToday 4 месяца назад

You can, but it will alter the flavor and texture of the buttercream. If you are adding some flavor extracts the taste shouldn’t be as noticeable. The texture probably will be though. Margarine doesn’t hold its structure as well as butter in my opinion. I’d say give it a try - it doesn’t hurt to experiment and see what works for you.

Hi ! Yes you can, if you’re using this buttercream on cake not cupcakes, either leave the buttercream at room temperature for couple of hours in an airtight container to get firmer a little bit or usually it’s easier to reduce the water content to 60g and you will have firmer buttercream. If using it on cupcake just use it as is and you can use it immediately.
