Easy vanilla Buttercream
Ingredients
- 180 g softened butter
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 400 g icing sugar
- 3-4 tbsp milk
Instructions
- Whisk the butter for 5 minutes until it starts become pale and fluffy
- Add the vanilla extract and whisk for a further minute
- Sift the icing sugar into the butter in 3 stages, whisking for 1 minute after each addition
