Zubereitung von Vanilla Buttercream
- Fill a saucepan with about an inch of water and bring to a simmer. Place the mixing bowl of your electric mixer over the saucepan, ensuring the bottom of the bowl doesn't touch the water.
- In the mixing bowl, whisk together 3 large egg whites and 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar until the sugar is nearly dissolved and the mixture is slightly warm to the touch.
- Carefully remove the bowl from the saucepan.
- With the electric mixer on high speed, whip the mixture until stiff, glossy peaks form.
- Reduce the mixer speed to low and continue beating until the mixture is completely cool, about 5 minutes.
- Add 1 cup (2 sticks) of cold, unsalted butter, one tablespoon at a time, at medium-low speed. Make sure each addition is fully incorporated before adding more.
- Once all the butter is added, increase the mixer speed to high and beat until the frosting is light, fluffy, and smooth (about 3-5 minutes).
- Add 1/4 teaspoon of salt and 2 teaspoons of pure vanilla extract. Mix on low speed until well combined.
- Frost your delicious cupcakes and enjoy!
