My go to recipe! Always works and always delicious
Makes a lot
Perfect
perfect!
Perfect butter icing. Love it!
I love this butter cream!!! It's a simple, delicious, never fail, every time! Has anyone doubled the recipe with success? I have a big cake to ice this morning.
So impressed! Although this makes half the amount I usually make in my stand mixer, the time it takes is a fraction of what the stand mixer takes, it's quieter (bonus with 2 littlies!) and is spot on with the ratio quantities and ingredients I usually use. I had tried a lot of other recipes and never could get it to work in thermomix - so had resigned myself that buttercream would have to forever be done in the good old kenwood chef. Well not anymore!! Thankyou so much for sharing! I was dubious about whether it would whip it enough to be light and creamy but yes! The method is exactly what it needs and perfect piping every time
Worked really well and tastes delicious
Love this recipe... Never fails !! Thanks
Easy and great consistency!
