I need a recipe for butter frosting?
I will make cakes and cookies for Christmas for my family and I need to know a good butter icing recipe, one in the pipeline I can / decorate cakes. My family is very picky when it comes to the flavor of the icing. Prefer the icing on the bakery Wal-Mart, so if anyone has a recipe close to that please share. On the other hand, I can use an electric mixer for the formation of ice or what I need a standing mixer. This will be my first time making it. Any help is greatly appreciated.
A very simple recipe but real butter cream icing tasty following: 1 pound powdered sugar 1 / 4 pound room temperature butter cut into pieces 1 teaspoon vanilla extract pinch of salt in milk by the tablespoon of butter in a container of vanilla extract. Add 1 / 3 of the sugar and mix with whisk. When the mixture is creamy, add 1 / 3 more sugar and continue to cream with the mixer. Add a spoonful of milk or half n half and sugar balance. Mix until frosting is light and creamy. You may need to add more milk desired consistency for piping. Be very careful when liquid is added to this, since you need very little to have a huge effect. From this basic recipe you can add your custom aromas such as 4 rounded tablespoons cocoa for chocolate frosting great. You can also add a teaspoon of instant coffee granules lifting. If you want a different flavor base, replace the vanilla extract to extract your favorite, like almonds, lemon, etc. Good luck!
