Report

Share:
Ingredients
- 3 egg whites

- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 1/8 teaspoon salt don’t skip this

Instructions
- Place egg whites and sugar into the bowl of a stand mixer, whisk until combined.
- Set bowl over a medium/large saucepan with 1-2" of simmering water and whisk until the mixture reads 160F (approx. 5 mins)
- Place bowl on your stand mixer and whisk on med-high until the meringue is stiff and cooled (approx. 10mins)). Add salt and vanilla and mix in.
- Slowly add cubed butter and mix until smooth. If it doesn't taste quite sweet enough, you can add 1/4 - 1/2 cup powdered sugar.
Notes
- If you are weaning from a really sweet buttercream, you can add 1/4 - 1/2 cup powdered sugar, to taste
