Our latest flavor of Buttercream frosting is a gigantic hit … it definitely deserves the title The Best Peppermint Buttercream Frosting. We think it tastes just like a butter mint candy – sweet, creamy, buttery with just the right amount of peppermint flavoring. This one is a keeper!
I use my food scale to measure 1 pound of Powdered Sugar. (If you don’t have a food scale the equivalent would be 4 cups.) You can sift the powdered sugar if it is really lumpy. I do not always do this. Instead I will mix the powdered sugar on low for 30 seconds to break up any large lumps.
Add 1 cup (2 sticks) of softened butter. I only ever use real butter, but you can use whatever you have on hand. Although I think margarine changes the taste, your buttercream frosting made with margarine will still be better than canned frosting.
INGREDIENTS:
- 1 pound (4 cups) of Powdered Sugar
- 1 cup Butter (We use Salted Sweet Cream Butter)
- 1 Tablespoon Milk
- 1 1/4 teaspoon of Peppermint Extract
- Wilton Color Right Food Coloring – Red
- Decorating Bags
- Wilton 2D Decorating Tip
- Mixer
DIRECTIONS:
- Add powdered sugar to mixing bowl.
- Add softened sticks of butter
- Add 1 tbsp of milk.
- Beat on low until powdered sugar is incorporated. Then move mixer up to medium-high speed. Scrape sides and bottom of bowl often. When completely mixed the frosting may appear dry.
- Add more milk, a little bit at a time until frosting is the proper consistency.
- Add Peppermint Extract
