Ingredients
- 2 cups powdered confectioner's sugar 250g
- 2 tablespoons butter at room temperature
- 2 tablespoons smooth applesauce puree if necessary, at room temperature
- ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Note: this is enough for the top and sides of a layer cake; double the recipe to also frost the sides.
Instructions
- First, ensure that your applesauce is smooth. If yours isn't, then briefly puree it with an immersion blender (hand held stick blender).
- Also, ensure the applesauce and butter are at room temperature.
- Add the butter, apple sauce and vanilla to a mixing bowl, and beat with an electric mixer until smooth.
- Sift in the powdered confectioner's sugar a little at a time, beating until thick, smooth, and creamy.
- TIP: If necessary, add a little more powdered sugar to thicken, or a tablespoon of milk to thin.
- Store it covered in the refrigerator until you're ready to use it.
Notes
- Make sure your butter is at room temperature before beating it. If you've forgotten to take it out of the fridge, to soften it quicker you can grate it on a cheesegrater, then set it aside for 10 minutes or until soft. It will take less time to come up to room temperature than a whole block will.
