Steps to make Buttercream Icing:
- Start by whipping your butter and shorting (electric mixer is a must) mix for at least 5 minutes. You'll be able to tell that it is done when the butter turns white. (The mixing here is crucial!) side note the butter you see here is pure Irish butter, made from grass fed cows. Now, the butter you use does not have to be this brand, just make sure it is a pure, high grade butter.
- By one cup at a time, SIFT and add your powered sugar. (Sifting your sugar is also very important, to get that super smooth texture) side note Domino brand works well…Ive used off brand sugar multiple times and it just never turns out the same. Key words to look for are PURE CANE SUGAR π
