Rolled Buttercream
*Dries strong enough to package and stack.
*Tastes EXACTLY like buttercream
*has a soft bite
royal icing can be used to decorate after it crusts
2 sticks (1 cup), soft butter, shortening, or a combination of both
3 TBS. cornsyrup
3 tsp. Extracts/flavorings/emulsions
1 tsp. white gel color
2 lbs. powdered sugar
Beat with a paddle, beat all together until it comes away clean from the sides of the bowl. Should come together like soft play dough. Turn out and wrap with plastic wrap. Let rest or use right away.
Store unused dough wrapped in the fridge(up to 3weeks). Freeze for 3 months. It warms immediately in your hands as you work with it.
*Acts a lot like fondant
To cover a cookie:
Roll between two pieces of parchment paper. Remove the outer scraps(can be rerolled as much as needed) and lift the parchment to peel off the shapes. Attach with a thinly painted layer of cornsyrup.
Let dry overnight to crust.
Can be colored or painted.
Attach dry molded pieces of rolled buttercream with cornsyrup.
To mold or imprint:
Dust mold with cornstarch. Push into mold. Freeze 10 mins if it is too soft to remove from the mold. Air dry overnight on paper towels. Can be painted, dusted, airbrushed, stenciled, and attached once dry with cornsyrup.
These are strong enough to package and stack after crusted.
dust with cornstarch before packaging.
DOES NOT MELT on the cookie in 80°-90° heat for 3 hours
Omigosh, this is one of the best videos I have ever seen on any subject; it's short, your directions are clear and on point, and you don't waste our time with extraneous stuff! Thank you so much for sharing; you rock!!
Dang, woman..... you are a FABULOUS instructor. You were so thorough that I don't have any questions. THANK YOU! 🧡🧡🧡
Thank you so much
Best dang video ever. Sooooo “dumbed” down to avoid any questions. I say that 10000% with love. I needed it dumbed down. Thank you!!!
Hahaha 😆 thank you! I COMPLETELY take it as the best compliment you can give a teacher!!!!! Happy Baking friend
Love this RBC. Will be using it alot. My first attempt I decided to experiment. I wanted 1/2 peanut butter flavored RBC to top your chocolate sugar cookie recipe & 1/2 cake batter flavor for your reg sugar cookies.
I added 1 tsp butter vanilla emulsion and 1 tsp reg vanilla. When it pulled away from the sides I divided it in half.
I then added 5 Tablespoons Jif peanut butter and 40 drops LA oils peanut butter flavor and mixed with mixer 2 1/2 T & 20 drops at a time untill combined. It rolled out nice after resting and crusted over in 10 hrs. I used it the 2nd day from sitting in the fridge it was just as easy to roll too. Everyone loved the rich PB flavor on your Choc cookies !
The 2nd half I made Cake batter flavored I added 1 1/2 tsp McCormick cake batter flavor and mixed it in the mixer.
That was a hit too.
The PB was not as soft as the other so next time I may add a tsp of kayo syrup to PB.
Thank you for this recipe.
Ohhhh you’ve just changed my life!! I’m going to try this! I know many people aren’t fans of fondant so I wanted to try a different technique and I think I’ve found it!!
It's so good! Have fun!!!!!
I am new to cookie decorating. Have mainly been a macaron baker. So happy to find you. I can see so many ideas that can cross over to macarons plus be super fun on cookies.
I, too, was a macaron maker!!!! Happy Baking 🌞
I was about to give up on cookie decorating cookies until I saw this video! Gonna give it one more chance! Thank you!
You said what I was JUST thinking. I tried my hand at piping and flooding for the first time this weekend, and I had a HOT mess. I don't want to sell my cookies, as I just want it to be a hobby to give to family and friends. THEN, I saw this video on rolled buttercream. I believe I can do this! I'm going to try this today, as I am making some cookies for my son's wedding this upcoming weekend.
This is great! I'd much prefer to use rolled buttercream. Im going to try it. Thank you 😊
Wow, I definitely will be trying this recipe. Borderlands Bakery recommended your video. 😃
Oh wow
Great video I'm actually trying it today. Can't wait to see how it turns out. I have ALWAYS used buttercream frosting on my cookies. People seem to really like my sugar cookies with buttercream frosting.
You’re such a fabulous teacher! Thank you so much for sharing this!
You are so welcome!
@@pamkennedybakes3649 I made this today and it came together great. However when I rolled it and tried to use my embossed stamp for a happy birthday stamp, the rolled buttercream stuck right to my stamp. Will it not work for stamping?
so i totally made some cookies last night for my boys baseball teams using your rolled buttercream recipe, which was so easy to handle. My kiddos loved it, which was great to hear cuz i dont taste test anything! the only hard part i found was written on them or trying to write on them with food markers. I ended up using gel color instead, as the markers wanted to dent the crust. if you have a food marker that you used on rolled buttercream and it worked well i would love to hear about it.
This recipe is FANTASTIC for anyone wanted to try it!!!!
i was wondering if you recommend a brand of food color marker or pen you used and had success?
I did let them sit overnight on the counter(counter ok or should i put in fridge for harder crust?) to crust over and didnt start working on them again until 2 pm. They were firm but as soon as i tried written on them it dented. so
Made this morning and am already in love! Mine aren’t as pretty as yours but dang, it’s awesome!
Oh wonderful!
I feel like I hit the jackpot with this video. It will make cooking baking sooooo much fun
Thanks for this
Have fun! Thank you
Thank you so much, Pam. What a wonderful recipe and video! We've just completed decorating our cookies with the rolled buttercream. It worked Excellent in the silicon molds as well for embellishments. A prediction, this will go viral 😊
Awwww thank you so much 💓
I can't wait to try this💗 and I agree with all the other comments, you are a wonderful instructor!🥰
Thank you so much
Giiiiirrrrrrl.
You are awesome and a great…GREAT instructor.
Very, VERY patient and I can tell you speak to cater to all ‘mindsets’. Slow processors more importantly.
That shows a love for teaching others how to be great. That’s… a spirit of excellence.
Everyone doesn’t have that in the ❤️.
GOD Bless you.
I was juuuust looking at a tutorial for using fondant instead (and though an exciting💡)-THIS ONE…got me EXTREMELY GEEKED!
I have a Gender Reveal order for 15 cupcakes for a much loved young church sister and husband.
I always like to go a lil’ step further for those who commission me at minimal cost TO me because it’s a gift for them to enjoy from my heart.
My spirit of excellence.
THANK YOU, for I TRULY BELIEVE I was led by the precious Holy Spirit to be able to provide such a wonderful & tasty gift for them.
You definitely got a new follower.❤️❤️
Thank you soooo much.
❤Thank you , I can’t wait to try it ! ❤
Thank you so much for your videos! I tried half a batch of the rolled butter cream. It was very easy to work with and delicious. I’m looking forward to trying it with some fondant molds. Your videos are very informative.
Thank you so much 💓
This is a great video! Thank you so much for sharing. Very simple to follow. I’m brand new at this so i appreciate your time and talent!
Thank you 😊 I am so glad it helped
I buy my powder sugar in bulk from Costco or Food Services of America.
With that said 2 pounds (32 ounces) is 7 1/2 cups.
I made a recipe similar to this years ago that I found in Betty Crocker dessert section.
With that being said, I appreciate you posting this as I have moved twice in 5 years and I am disorganized with my cookbooks that I have collected for years. I don’t have the white gel food coloring and am in a time crunch to just make some pinks and blues for a gender reveal. I will get some as that would be handy to have.
Thanks for sharing I have some of the supplies but that roller with the thickness setting is awesome!
Now this seems so simple can’t wait to try it. I like how clean it looks especially since my RI is a hit or miss. Still new to the cookie world
Thanks! You may have saved my sanity. I keep failing with Royal Icing. Going to try this today!!
So happy to share and help ☺️
@@pamkennedybakes3649 the recipe says to dust with cornstarch before packaging. If I’m using cellophane envelopes do I still need to dust the cookie?
BEAUTIFUL
EXCELLENT Video
Great video. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
How should I store leftovers?
Newbie to decorating cookies and I really wanna learn I’ll be stalking your channel for a while 😊😅 much appreciate your time!
Wow!!! I'm gonna try this, and I love the very clear way you explain. Thank you 👏🩵🫶
Great video, I like all the suggestions. Can’t wait to try it!
Thank you 😊 let us all know how it goes
Super cool! ❤
incredible!! I can't wait to try this out. I think it's gonna be a game changer for me
This is awesome! I found your video in a cookie group on FB and I can’t wait to try this!
Same here!!!!
Excellent!!! I will practice! Thanks for share with us!
Oh wow! Thanks for sharing!!
Hello, loved the video! May I please see the making of the butter cream in machines, it’s a little fuzzy for me? Do you have another video on the actual process of mixing? It will help a lot. Thank you so much!
Thank you! Great video and beautiful work 😍
Thank you for sharing!
Thank you! Excellent tutorial!
Hi Pam! Can you please share the sugar cookie recipe and or video that you use with this rolled buttercream please? Thank you!!
All of my recipes are available on my channel.
Loved ❤ your video, thank you 😊
Loved the video. Very clear. Do you have any videos on the stencil process?
Yes I do!

Hi there…your instructions to make the rolled icing are very clear…thank you for the video…however, I do have one question…is it suitable to apply it on cakes?
Yes, you can it's just not as flexible as fondant
HI, Miss Pam! This looks wonderful!! I wonder if this RBC is sweet or not? TY!
It is!
If additional corn syrup is added will it become pipeable? Would like to make flowers with it 🌼
Try it and see
Where do you find 5/16 roller? Also after you make the sugar cookies how do you pkg to freeze? Once you dip or place rolled frosting on can you bag them ? Worried about condensation in bag?
Amazon and etsy sell 5/16" (8mm) rings to fit most models of rolling pin.
For freezing:
ua-cam.com/video/jL0jUMDV88Y/v-deo.htmlsi=k7Wsr92ctHFqPtKR
To package them you dust them with cornstarch? Can you share a video of how to do this? Thank you!
Yes I can:

Completely a newbie here
Can you use melted chocolate to stick it on the cookie?
EXCELLENT tutorial! Thank you for sharing! If rolling to 1/4 inch, about how many 3” cookies would this recipe cover?
Thank you! Probably around 40
This is so great Hod I use food coloring like that or have to dilute it
Later that day, or within the next few days, does the rolled buttercream have a soft bite in the cookie? Also, after you make your buttercream and before you apply it on to the cookie, would you be able to store it for a few days? If so, how would you store it? (LOVED your informative video!)
No matter how long it dries....it has a soft bite it has fats, unlike royal icing
@@pamkennedybakes3649 will it stick to the cookie if you decide to cut out the buttercream one day but not apply it to the cookie until the next day?
Great video, thank you so much! Can rolled buttercream be made in advance? What is the best way to store it?
Yes, absolutely wrapped in plastic wrap and in the refrigerator for 3 weeks, or freeze for months
Can you use Torani syrups in place of corn syrup? Just thinking about the flavor possibilities. Excellent video!
I have not tried. If you do, please share your results with everyone! Happy baking
Thank you for the excellent videos! I am making cookies for my niece's wedding in Florida which is on a Saturday. I need to have everything done by the Tuesday (ideally) or Wednesday before because I fly out on a Thursday. I feel unsure on how to time this with all of the steps and still be able to keep them fresh. I also need to pack them in my carry on bag safely. I do have individual boxes that I'm hoping will help. Would you be able to suggest how I can do this effectively? Thanks so much!!
I would bake and freeze undecorated cookies now. You can fly with cookies just stack on their sides in a strong airtight container
I followed the recipe exactly and it was amazing. It is so easy. I like how it crusts over and you can package them. In the video you said you can use part butter and part shortening. Will it still crust over if I do that?
Yes, but you may need more cornsyrup or less powdered sugar.
Thank you for the great video. Can the corn syrup be replaced with golden syrup, please?
Yes you can!
@@pamkennedybakes3649 Great. Thank you so much for replying.
Excited to try this ! How do we store extra ? For how long ?
Wrap up in plastic wrap and refrigerate up to 3 weeks or freeze up to 3 months
@@pamkennedybakes3649Thank you !
Love this video. Can I freeze sugar cookies decorated with rolled buttercream?
Yes you can!
Please,how many grams are 2 lib?i m from greece.
And the measure of the cup?😊
Can you put this on a cake like fondant?
Yes. It's not quite as flexible but yes
Can I use a dehydrator with this rolled buttercream?
The heat makes it oily
Ohhhh I’m so excited to try this !! I’m new at making cookies . I don’t however have a mixer like that just the hand mixer . How else can I mix the icing ?
Loved your video ❤ Can I use this method for cakes
Yes but it doesn't stretch like fondant can
Thanks so much
Thank you for creating and sharing this great video! Can this be stored in the refrigerator for a few days?
3wks fridge, 3months freezer
How well will this work with fondant molds to make roses , Unicorn horns ,ears type of fondant molds thank you for showing us all how to make rolled buttercream this looks pretty cool.
It works great! I would pop the molds in the fridge for easier removal. The butter will firm up. Then air dry. Attach with cornsyrup
Hi. Love this recipe along with the crusting buttercream. I wanted to know if I could use Natrual Balance, Vegan Butter, and get the same result.
I am unsure. You may want to ask on a fb page
Love this! Can you halve the recipe?
Yes of course!
Hi Pam. I have a question. If I don’t use all the rolled buttercream can I store it in a ziploc bag? And should I leave it on the counter or put it in the fridge? I’m afraid if I put it in the fridge it may get too hard. Thank you!
I keep mine wrapped in plastic wrap in a tub in the fridge for up to 3 weeks. Just let it soften to room temp before rolling. No problem
Thank you! I made this. Mine came out a bit dry and crumbly. I used all shortening due to cottage food laws in my state. Should I add a bit more shortening or corn syrup?
I would add another TBS. Of cornsyrup.....
I see you only use shortening. I would also like to use only shortening. What is the shelf life of your cookies?
Can you use this dough by stamping out all that you need and freeze it so that you have them ready to place on cookies once you get done baking?
Sure
I'm new to your videos amd I'm loving them. On the rolled butter cream icing I have noticed that you are using the same cookie cutter as for the cookie but it looks like the rolled icing is a different size on the cookies in the video. Does the icing shrink as it dries?
Hi Pam! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and experience with us. I have a question, I usually work with RI, but I would like to do some details such as little bows, little hearts with rolled buttercream. Is it ok for me to put this details on my cookie with RI as the base icing? Or would it be a disaster? You have mentioned to add details with RI on top of your rolled buttercream but I am not sure if it would be the same having the base with RI. Thank you so much 🩷

Hey Pam, I made the rolled buttercream for the first time tonight. It came out great. I rolled out to 1/4” but when I tried to get it off the parchment paper it was so soft it was hard keeping the shape I had cut it out to be. I’m guessing the only issue might have been the humidity? I’m in SC but it wasn’t a hot day today. I had let my buttercream rest for a bit before I used it. Maybe an hour or so. Should I refrigerate it next time before I roll out? It wasn’t sticky at all when I colored it and when I rolled it. How long would you suggest? Maybe 20 minutes or so? BTW, it does taste great! Thank you for the great recipe and video!
The trick is to roll it on parchment. Cut. Remove the scraps and pop it in the freezer to peel it off easily
Thank you!
Hi Pam, I've made your rolled buttercream recipe using 1/2 shortening 1/2 butter. I wrapped it in plastic wrap then in an airtight zip bag and let set for 24 hours. The rolled buttercream is so oily and greasy. What can I do to fix this? When rolling it out, it cracks and sticks to my silicone rolling pin. Thanks for any help.
You can add a little more powdered sugar. Or use all butter
Can I use this like fondant for a cake? They don’t like fondant and I really need some texture to the cake. Thank you for your help.
Yes you can
Thank you so much. It’s a castle cake and I wanted to add some stone texture. I’ve never used rolled buttercream before.
Ms Pam, having purchased both your sugar cookie and this recipe last night-I’m trying my hand at Baby Shower Sugar Cookies.
Can you please tell me (I apologize if you’ve covered this) can this support heavy pigmentation coloring such as ‘Navy or Teal’?
Since this is your recipe and trying to avoid wasting product-I thought I’d take a shot at asking first.
Thank you.❤
Maybe a Tip video on do’s and don’t of coloring rolled?🤷🏽♀️
Yes, just knead in color
I NEVER understood fondant being used on sugar cookies for decor at parties. In my experience, they ALWAYS go to waste because almost NO ONE i know doesn't like fondant (including me). Royal icing is great, but this is new to me! And i assume delicious!
I AGREE! Wait until you taste and play with this! It's really wonderful stuff.
Oh amazing ! I am going to try this can we use it to cover cakes ?
Small cakes. It's not as flexible as fondant
Love your video - thank you! About how many cookies can you decorate with one batch of rolled buttercream?
About 28-36

Thank you so much for such an excellent explanation! Do you think a printer image could be adhered to the buttercream? Thank you. 😊😊

Can you apply molded rolled buttercream appliqués to buttercream frosted cakes?
Yes!!!
Just bought your recipe. Excited to try it. Can you tell me the white smasher thingamajig, called? TIA
Hi it was in a fondant kit.
Is the rolled buttercream shelf stable?
This has been very helpful, thanks for sharing your talent with us.
I am making molds with this buttercream.
I was wondering how long can I store the molded pieces in the freezer? Is there any specific way to store the molded butercream pieces to protect them from breakage.
I know the RI tranfers last a long time but I am thinking it may be different for molded rolled buttercream.
Once dried, molded rolled buttercream lasts a long time. Mine are still good after 3 months
@@pamkennedybakes3649 thank you for getting back to me on my question. I have learned so much from your videos!
Hi there I’m in the UK.
We use grams. Could you please advise what the ingredients are in that weight. Also we don’t have corn syrup in the UK. What can I use as an alternative?
Thanks.
Your cookies are amazing xx

Let dry and store in a cool place out of direct sunlight.
@@pamkennedybakes3649 thank you very much!!
Making your recipe now and i am super excited! How long does it normally take for it come clean from side of the mixing bowl?
Just a quick minute. If still sticky just let it rest in the bowl 5-10 mins. Then turn out and kneed a few times
How does this taste in comparison to the royal icing? How did you stencil and paint it?
It is buttercream. Tastes like buttercream. These were done with an impression mat
Oh Pam - you make it look so easy! I wish you could see my kitchen after trying this. After making, I wrapped it in cling wrap and put it in the fridge for about 2 hours. When I tried to roll it out - it stuck to everything! My parchment paper, my roller - my silpat, everything. I read that if it's too sticky, add more powdered sugar, so I powdered sugared everything in sight! LOL. I tried rolling it out and putting it back in the fridge or freezer and then cutting it out - and it was still a mess. I know I've got to be doing something wrong - it took me about 3 hours to do 6 cookies - and they are NOT pretty. LOL. Is there any hope for me? Obviously, I still have buttercream in the fridge leftover and I'd like to try again ..... but I'm really tempted to trash it. Can you help me? Please?
Oh no. Something was definitely not measured correctly. You can save it by kneading in more powdered sugar until no longer sticky? But I would try it again.

Rolled Buttercream. How long does it stay good. How do you store the unused icing.
Wrapped in plastic in an airtight container. 3weeks fridge, 3 months frozen
What do add to the buttercream to not have it so sweet? Will a little salt work? It's way to sweet for me
You can try salted butter or adding fine salt
Popcorn salt works great!

Yes you can but i recommend it highly
This icing is delicious! Just wondering, if it's a little too wet and hard to work with, can I add some more icing sugar? I'm of the impression that it shouldn't go in the fridge? Thank you!
Yes, absolutely just add more sugar and make sure it's not getting hot from your hands

This was easy to make, but struggling with color. Can you color this like fondant and mix the color right into some RB?
