5-MINUTE CHOCOLATE BUTTERCREAM FROSTING



5-Minute Chocolate Buttercream Frosting image

Skip the store-bought frosting in favor of this easy recipe for the best chocolate buttercream frosting that takes just 5 minutes to make!

Provided by Kelly Senyei

Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 Tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
2 1/3 cups confectioners' sugar
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/3 cup whole milk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter on medium speed until it is smooth, about 1 minute.
  • Add the confectioners' sugar and cocoa powder to the bowl and beat until combined. With the stand mixer running on low speed, slowly stream in the milk and vanilla extract then add the salt and continue beating until well combined, scraping down the sides as needed, about 2 minutes.
  • Increase the speed to high and beat the frosting for an additional 2 minutes. Use the frosting immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge. (If you refrigerate the frosting, you may want to re-blend it for a few seconds in the stand mixer before using it.)

THE BEST ROYAL ICING RECIPE



The Best Royal Icing Recipe image

Learn what royal icing is and how to make our easy royal icing recipe with egg whites that can be used for sugar cookies, for icing gingerbread, and other sweets decorating. Plus, learn how to store royal icing, how long royal icing takes to dry, and how long it lasts.

Provided by Kristen Evans Dittami

Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 cups confectioners' sugar
1 large egg white, or equivalent amount of dried egg whites
½ teaspoon water

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the sugar, egg white, and water. Mix the ingredients together with a wooden spoon, until the icing is thickened and smooth, about 2 minutes.
  • The icing will keep up to 2 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Before using, beat it with a fork. Stir in very small amounts of water if it seems too thick. Royal icing can be thinned simply by adding water (or lemon juice), or thickened by adding confectioners' sugar. Add liquid or confectioners' sugar in small increments, such as 1/2 teaspoon at a time, and mix thoroughly before deciding whether to add more. Use thinner, spreadable royal icing for "flooding" cookies for background work, and thicker royal icing for "piping" lines and making rosettes. To make your royal icing colorful, a few drops of food coloring will saturate your royal icing with any color of the rainbow. Just remember that a little coloring goes a long way-if the color isn't as dark or saturated as you want, keep in mind that it will darken as the icing dries.
