      Lol - 226 grams!!! 😂. Yes, two hundred and twenty SIX grams. Yes everyone in the world who uses metric (apart from weird Americans) weighs out two hundred and twenty SIX grams of butter (in metric we weigh it out to the nearest five/ten digit). If you're reading this fellow bakers, just measure out 225 grams or near enough to that. It's butter for god's sake, not gram by gram micro-dust.

    The key to this is the proper room temp of the butter like you mentioned. The first you tube video I watched said to have the condensed milk cold. That won't work. The frosting was sliding off the cake. Even after I tried adding 1 cup of powdered sugar to thicken it up. Wasn't working. Also My butter was too warm. Just leave it out about 45 min. This is a good video. Thanks. I'm going to try it again because the taste was amazing. Also another video said to whip the butter for no less than 8 minutes.

    So, just tried your recipe, it worked up after I refrigerated it. I believe it is too hot for it in my state during summer. It melted immediately after I got it done pretty much (5-ish minutes). It tasted really good by itself... but not on the cupcakes I made. So, it's not my favorite but thanks for the recipe, it was fun to try! Off to the next frosting! 😊

      @@kimbask5714 It's made just as it was in the video. Although when I make it, I use 4 sticks (one pound) of salted butter, but I use the same technique that was used in the video. Just cream the butter for 5 to 7 minutes until it's smooth, creamy and lighter in color. Then add the vanilla (I omit the salt since I used salted butter) and the vanilla (I use a tablespoon), then beat till it's all light, creamy and well blended. To me, the taste is a tiny bit like that of homemade vanilla ice creaam - delicious, smooth and creamy.

      Be sure you don’t let it sit out for too long, or else it can get too warm and loose it’s silky smooth texture.

      Add some melted cooled white chocolate, about 100 would be enough. That sweetens it up and makes it taste even better. Or you could add dark if you wanted to make a chocolate buttercream. Then you will get a fudgy chocolate buttercream that's so delicious. I hope this helps x

    Can this be done in peanut butter or other flavors? If it thickens, what would you recommend to thin it out since the original recipe doesn’t involve heavy cream?

      from the recipe in the description : "It can be made in advance, but you will need to re-whip it with your stand or hand mixer once it comes to room temperature.
      Be sure you don’t let it sit out for too long, or else it can get too warm and loose it’s silky smooth texture.
      I let my frosting sit out overnight, and found it had developed air bubbles overnight. When I went to restir it to make it smooth again, it separated :/

      i don’t like American buttercream because it’s way to sweet, so i’ve been using Italian meringue buttercream because it’s less sweet. The Russian buttercream looks very silky and i think the sweetened condensed milk would give it the perfect amount of sweetness. but everyone has different preferences and if you want to decide which one is better try it out for yourself! hope this helps

    Hi, just wandering if I was to heat the condensed milk as to make caramel could I use the same method to make caramel buttercream? Also here in the UK we don't have sticks of butter it's sold in blocks of 250g can you please advise. Thanks.

    • @ShellyRoxyberry
      @ShellyRoxyberry 2 роки тому

      One stick of butter is roughly 113gr...or a half of a cup. 2 sticks is obviously double. So your 250 grams is just a little over one cup(2 sticks). I'm sure you've figured it out by now...only commenting for anyone that is just now reading and needing info.
