Faux Swiss Chocolate Buttercream Frosting
silky smooth, no sugar grit chocolate frosting
Servings: 12 servings
Ingredients
- 1 1½ cups butter salted which is 3 sticks or 340 grams
- 1 ¼ cups powdered sugar or 156 grams
- ¼ cup cocoa powder or 31 grams
- ⅓ cup liquid coffee creamer (vanilla or sweet cream) or 78 ml
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
Instructions
- Be sure the butter and creamer are at room temperature.
- In the bowl of a mixer beat butter on medium speed until light in color and smooth, 2 minutes.
- In a separate small bowl whisk powdered sugar, cocoa, creamer, and vanilla until it's a pourable syrup consistency (add 1 tablespoon more creamer if needed)
- Pour the powdered sugar mixture into the butter while mixing on medium-low speed
- Mixing on low speed for 5-7 minutes. This will mix the frosting smooth and creamy without whipping air into the frosting, and this will avoid bubbles.
- Scrape down sides after the first few minutes to ensure all ingredients are well mixed
