Cupcake Frosting Not Too Sweet. Indydebis icing isnt too sweet and everybody loves itI really like the recipe for extra special buttercream It has great flavor and not too sweet. When decorating cakes in the heat and humidity you have to break out a few tricks to make it work.
Its a mixture of vanilla pudding and whipped cream - perfection. To your regular buttercream that uses 1 stick of butter add 4 ounces of cream cheese. You will dilute the recipe and therefore it.
Use Cream Cheese Together with Butter Using both cream cheese and buttercream will give you a mix type buttercream.
Beat 2 more minutes or until icing has the consistency of whipped cream. Yesterday evening I whipped up some chocolate cupcakes to take up to the guests but instead of the typical chocolate icing Id normally. This twist on American buttercream frosting stands up to a warm day is perfect for piping and its not too overly sweet. Stir it up really really REALLY good no need to use a mixer then put it in the refrigerator for about an hour.
