The Wold's Best Homemade Buttercream Icing!

I am not a cake and desert person. However if I'm going to eat cake, it is going to be super moist amazing white or yellow cake with to DIE for Buttercream Icing! I hate store bought icing, and even more than canned store bought icing, is that disgusting whipped frosting they put on store bought birthday cake! YUCK!!! So this is a recipe for The World's Best Buttecream Icing! Give it a try you won't regret it!!!!

Ingredients:
2 Sticks of Unsalted Butter (room temperature)
1 Stick of Salted Butter (room temperature)
4 1/2 Cups of Powdered Sugar
3 Tbl Heavy Cream
1 1/2Tsp Vanilla

Directions:
I used a kitchen aid stand mixer, if you don't have one get a good sized bowl and your hand mixer out. Place the three sticks of room temperature butter in the bowl and mix on medium speed for eight(8) minutes. When you're done your butter should be very fluffy looking and white. 
(If using a kitchen aid mixer use your whisk attachment)  

Next put in your Powdered Sugar, Heavy Cream, & Vanilla. Mix on low until the powdered sugar is all moist (otherwise it will FLY everywhere, trust me I know from experience!!!!), (if you plan to color your icing this would be the time to add your coloring) then switch over to high and mix for five(5) minutes.

 Ice your cakes or cup cake right away, don't refrigerate the icing. 

****Easy Filling Idea For Piping Bags****
Open your piping bag and place it in a cup on the counter, fold the bag down over the sides of the cup and scoop the icing into the bag! Awesome!



Enjoy!
