Ingredients
For the frosting
- ½ cup (1 stick) Butter, unsalted
- ½ cup Florida Crystals® Regenerative Organic Light Brown Sugar, packed
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 4 tablespoons Heavy whipping cream
- 1 cup (2 sticks) Butter, unsalted, just softened
- ½ teaspoon Salt
- 3 cups Florida Crystals® Regenerative Organic Powdered Sugar
Instructions
Step 1
Prepare the buttercream by melting the 1 stick of butter in a small saucepan. Over medium heat, and occasionally swirling the pan, cook butter until the butter is a golden-brown color and has a nutty aroma. Add the brown sugar and mix with a wooden spoon or spatula to combine over low heat. Add the vanilla extract and heavy cream. Stir for a few minutes over low heat to help to dissolve the brown sugar. Pour mixture into a small bowl and set aside or refrigerate for 10 minutes, or until the mixture is at room temperature.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl with a paddle attachment, beat the remaining 2 sticks of butter until creamy. Add the cooled brown butter mixture and salt and beat on medium speed. Add the powdered sugar in three additions and scrape the mixing bowl after each addition. On medium-high speed, beat the buttercream until light and fluffy.
Additional Tips
Additional heavy cream may be needed if a softer frosting is desired.
Frosting can be made ahead of time; once the frosting is mixed, transfer to a bowl or container and cover with a lid or parchment paper. Refrigerate until ready to use. When ready to use, warm to room temperature and the frosting may need to be mixed slightly.
