Ingredients
1
cup
of good quality salted butter
3
teaspoons
of vanilla
4
cups
of icing sugar
4-5
tablespoons
of coffee cream 18% and up
Instructions
Using room temperature butter, place it in your mixer bowl.
Using a paddle attachment, whip the butter until it's creamy and fluffy.
Add in the icing sugar, one cup at a time, beating in completely, until all 4 cups are combined.
Add in the vanilla and whip again to combine.
Add in your cream, less cream = stiffer icing. More cream - fluffier icing.
