Steps

15 minutes
  1. 1

    Take the butter out 4 hours in advance to bring it to room temperature, and sift the powdered sugar.

  2. 2

    Place the butter, powdered sugar, and chosen flavoring in the mixer. Start at low speed for one minute, then mix for 4 minutes at medium speed. The buttercream will change color and become paler.

  3. 3

    It can be stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container for about a week, but you will need to bring it to room temperature before using and beat it until it regains its original consistency.
