Ingredients
To create this delightful frosting, gather the following ingredients:
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 4 cups powdered sugar
- 1 cup brewed coffee, cooled
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Follow these simple steps to whip up a batch of Coffee Buttercream Frosting:
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter with an electric mixer on medium speed until it is light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.
- Gradually add the powdered sugar, mixing on low speed until combined. This helps prevent the sugar from puffing up into the air.
- Once the sugar is incorporated, increase the speed to medium and add the cooled brewed coffee, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix until the frosting is smooth and creamy.
- If the frosting is too thick, you can add a little more coffee, one tablespoon at a time, until you reach your desired consistency. If it’s too thin, add a bit more powdered sugar until it thickens.
- Once you have the right consistency, use immediately to frost your favorite cakes or cupcakes. Alternatively, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
This luscious Coffee Buttercream Frosting is not only easy to make but also a versatile addition to your baking repertoire. Whether for a special occasion or just an everyday treat, this frosting is sure to bring smiles and satisfaction to everyone who enjoys it. Happy baking!
