How to Make Honey And Spice Buttercream Frosting
- Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of unflavored gelatin over 2 tablespoons of cold water in a small bowl. Let it bloom for at least 10 minutes.
- In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup honey, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and 2 tablespoons of water. Bring to a rolling boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened.
- Remove from heat and let cool for 3 minutes.
- Gradually whisk 2 tablespoons of the warm honey mixture into the bloomed gelatin until completely dissolved.
- Whisk the remaining honey syrup into the gelatin mixture along with 1/4 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon.
- Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a medium-sized bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on high speed until the frosting has doubled in volume and is completely cool (about 10-15 minutes).
- Add 1 cup (2 sticks) of softened unsalted butter, 2 tablespoons at a time, while beating continuously on medium-high speed until light and fluffy.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Use immediately or chill for later use. Rewhip briefly before frosting.
- Spread generously over your favorite cakes, breads, or pastries!
