Vanilla Buttercream Frosting

When you’re baking for a movie star, may I suggest the Hollywood Walk of Fame Star Cake (yellow cake with fresh strawberries, buttercream and a personalized Hollywood star made of fondant).

Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened 2 sticks
  • 1 pound powdered sugar 4 cups
  • ¼ cup heavy cream or milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

  • Beat softened butter on medium speed with an electric or stand mixer. Beat for 3 minutes until smooth and creamy.
  • Add powdered sugar, cream, and vanilla extract with the mixer running on low. Increase to high speed and beat for 3 minutes. Add more powdered sugar if frosting is too thin or more cream if mixture is too thick.

Notes

I made 3 batches of this to fill and frost the Hollywood Star Cake.
