Ingredients
Butter-100 gm / 1/2 cup
Extra Fine Icing Sugar / Confectioner’s Sugar - 200 gm / 2 cups
Milk-1-2 tsp
Essence of your choice
Instructions
Procedure
Cream together butter and essence for 5 minutes.
Sift icing sugar in a bowl and keep it ready.
Add 1/2 cup of icing sugar, mix it with a spoon to avoid the dust in kitchen.
Then beat it with an electric whisk until combined. Do not over beat.
Now add another 1/2 cup of icing sugar and again mi with a spoon before beating it.
When all the icing sugar is used up, the icing will be very stiff.
Now add 1 tsp of milk and beat.
Add another spoon if you find it very stiff.
Once you reach the correct consistency, beat the butter cream for another minute.
Use immediately or cover with a cling film and use it later.
Notes
P.S:
Do not over beat the butter cream as this will incorporate air into the cream and while frosting the surface will not be smooth.
