Making Creamy Vanilla Icing

[brazilianeyes13]

I did this recipe, and it tasted great, but the consistency was liquidy... No idea what I did wrong, but I've never ever been able to get a frosting right. I do not know why. Ummm, some things I did different was just usuing a hand mixer and I also cut the recipe in half. I also use this butter that is not necessarily real butter, but a substitue since my mom is lactose intolerant. It's blue bonnet. It's also made for cooking and has the same consistency and flavor of butter.... Any ideas?

[JosieheartsNemo]

Its actually a really good frosting. Its light & not too sweet. I think its for people who don't like really sweet frosting. It might take a while, but its worth it. It goes great with Chocolate cupcakes too [:

[knasim92]

worstttttttttt recipe for icing its not creamy like she she said pretty lumpy i done this recipe 2 times because i thought i messed up but then i found i found out that i was doing exactly what she said to do so recipe is the worst recipe i used in my whole life DO NOT USE THIS RECIPE!!!!

[nopseudosleft56]

@knasim92 Thanks for the warning!I'm off!lol!

[IrishMINI07]

Fantastic recipe. Not too sweet, very light, and easy to work with. So easy to make. Frostings made with confectioner's sugar are far too sweet. Having worked in several bakeries and having attended SCI, I highly recommend this recipe to those who wish to focus on a pleasant experience when eating cake. Thank you so much for this awesome recipe. :)

[ilubtiger]

thats alot of butter! :O

[zammystavez]

This fucking woman is so stupid

[lolalikeslola]

"from a low to medium high heat" what the flying fuck is that?!

[Luciferhelidon]

Pretty sure you can't make molecules bigger.



[rtbasschik]

@Luciferhelidon Actually, buddy, molecules DO expand. Ever hear of ice?

[Luciferhelidon]

@rtbasschik That's not the molecules expanding, pal, that's more to do with the configuration of the molecules. The intermolecular forces make them rearrange into a less space efficient configuration. Go back to baby school you fucking baby cunt.

[rtbasschik]

@Luciferhelidon I'm well aware of the logistics, the jist being that the water molecules rearrange themselves so that they require more space which can be arguably be considered a state of expansion. So put the dictionary back, because I know you're holding it tight in an effort to sound smart. Douchebag.

[Luciferhelidon]

@rtbasschik It's funny because you said something wrong when correcting someone. The molecule itself doesn't change size. You're a fool! A FOOL! Hahahahahaha. The most entertaining argument ever. Thanks, you fucking Baby! I hear baby school is less expensive the sixth time around because they feel sorry for you.

[katestar5]

yum



[Hxlgg]

I've made a lot of frostings and icings in my time and this... just does not look very appetizing. Stick to the simple recipes.

[rtbasschik]

@Hxlgg you should really try it, it's very tasty and compliments the cake well :)

[CookieCrakz]

It's looks like chees...And i'm much better than you to make icing!! :P

[juliennegrace]

other ingredients to butter. 1:100000

[shanagurl112]

THAT BASICLY JUST BUTTER!!!!!

[bloodfox060]

wow it came out reellly GOOOOOD and goooooood woooorrrrk keep it u;pppp ><

[22poppyxx]

can you add food colourings to it because wen i made just a normal butter and suger mix (butter and icing suger) i added a blue food colouring to it and it curdeld so please reply cuz i dont want to waste a whole load of icing if it curdels :-]

[shanagurl112]

@22poppyxx what do mean by curdels?

[22poppyxx]

@shanagurl112 some of the food colouring sepreates from the buttercream :)

[Hajoo88]

One pound means about 450 gram :)

[MsYalahwi]

i just tried it !! how much is 2 cups of butter in grams ?? i think i put too much today !! ><"

[nancyy284]

is that unsalted butter???

[Menrva26]

I've been icing my cakes with this frosting for yrs! Delicious!

[ishifly96]

@Menrva26 how to do u make ur frosting nd wats a base or w.e. dat is

[amandajuk]

what is cups? Can anyone convert into grams please? lol :)

[TheKaitlyn899]

dang thats a lot of butter

[hijakaftoyl]

unsalted butter or regular butter?

[kaybabe2000]

i made this and it was SOO DELICIOUS!!!! if you put it on a white cake, it is even better!!!

[pripra32]

WHICH GIRL IS NAMED BOBBIE

[janehwang104]

it looks like ricotta cheese

[desirei100]

if its hot there how come your wearing a jacket??

[JMFricks]

You can refrigerate it but you must whisk it about to get the flowing back.

[surrency1992]

This frosting is actually really delicious. Much lighter than buttercream and it is less sweet.

[Jyre13]

@surrency1992 you made this?

[surrency1992]

@Jyre13 Yeah I have the Magnolia Bakery cook book and Its exactly the same as this recipe, also my grandmothers recipes is basically the same.

[Jyre13]

@surrency1992 I wonder if the cream gets harder or dont loose it shape after a day or few hours? ;] I want to make creamy cake ^^

[cutebunny560]

Do you know you can use vegetable color to make color

[calebgarciaaa]

it means that it is in the middle of low and medium heat, what she meant by the "high heat" part is like "how high is the heat". Ugh. It's so hard to explain. :/ oh and it has a lot of butter maybe 'cause the frosting she made serves many people. I mean its a bakery, they should have lots of icing/frosting. Uh, whatever. :/ who cares.

[iSpySkyyTV]

ummm 2 cups of butter? bitch! do you know how pricey butter is nowadays..

[iTziiXcLuSiVe]

Mashed potato?

[MomoDeary4]

wtf!? Why would anybody take this much time to get fat???

[RaquelMaral]

Low to medium high heat?

[cookygirl09]

horrible and it takes too long and its not even confectioners sugar. Try this recipie.

1 cup of butter ( 2 sticks) heavy cream

2 cups of CONFECTIONER'S SUGAR (not regular sugar)

whip butter for about 1 minute. Mix in sugar slowly. Add heavy cream until desired consistency . If you want chocolate, add 1 cup of cocoa powder. ( I used Hershey's)

[cookygirl09]

horrible

[cynthiaily1001]

is the milk cold or room tempeture

[thetumbtumbtumb]

Does it have to use mixer?

[periwinkleRin]

doesnt look good

[jamesvondr]

how long will this icing expires?thanx

[trainlinezoo]

Excellent video - for those of you who are thinking about getting a Stand Mixer, do not get the Kitchenaid. Save your money and get a Breville 5 Qt. Mixer. You will not have to scrape the sides of you bowl and it has a rim shute to gracefully add in ingredients as you go. A lot of butter is right - can I clarify and freeze it first to get some fats out? I want to try this with 1/2 tsp of watermelon extract added as a summer twist.

[BadVoodo0]

ill show you creamy

[Commentgal12]

omfg her voice is so annoying to me

[RaggzyCJ]

this is a weird recipe... 

[caitie1010]

ohhh no. i lovee cupcakes but when i had one from magnolia bakery i literally couldnt get through the icing haha :(

[TanaSeis]

This is icing is so good!! When I first saw it, I wasnn't sure, but when i "actually" tried it, it was so light and D.E.L.I.C.I.O.U.S! I swear guys try this ! and I promise you, you won't regret it! ^*^

[lisabeicker]

Look madame.. I know you said a pound of butter, but I am a teenage-girl, so I refuse to put that in my cream!!!!

[Kathy1234567891]

Pound of butters gunna ruin my liver!!!!

[dolzeeh]

you look like Tina Fey

[carpeinfinitum]

This is supposed to be "LIGHTER" than most recipes out there? :O

[HappySoccerPlayer]

HOW LONG FOR THE FLOUR AND MILK ON THE STOVE... ITS tAKING FOREVER

[ThatCrazyHiperKid]

Fatass.....

[meeseinoddplaces]

@go4twilight997 I agree! I was skeptical...then i tried it.

so. good.

[DuctTapeCooley]

HOLY CRAP !!!!!! THTS ALOT A BUTTAH

[zokipoki1231]

im not from america and i dont know what a 2 cups of milk is so can anywon tell me how much is that in Grams?!

[featuringb]

@zokipoki1231 each cup is 250 mL

[Tonithenightowl]

I would cut this recipe in half also you can use Crisco Shortening instead of the butter. It makes for a not too sweet icing. When cooling the flour and milk mixture I put plastic wrap right on the surface to prevent a skin. You can also just keep giving it a stir to cool it.

[pimpisa15699]

i thought that we should use confectioner's or icing sugar instead of normal sugarrrr..

[ramonedwin]

wait... she she say protein molecules in butter? this lady doesn't know her biochemistry. of course, she's a baker

[surrency1992]

When people here cupcakes you automatically think buttercream but no this is icing made from cane sugar not confectioners sugar.

[Bmoneyraps]

"we're gonna put it on a low to medium high heat" .. wait, which one? lol

[LuvYaAll100]

thats sooo much butter!

[NadzInTheHouse197]

the base kinda looks like mayonaise..wait..wheres the icing sugar????

[NadzInTheHouse197]

the base kinda looks like mayonaise..



[WalksThroughLife]

Great video, thanks for the tips!

[aksblr]

I was really disappointed after making this recipe.

I followed the recipe step by step, still the end product was gritty.

I don't want to throw it away , does somebody have any suggestion how to overcome the grittiness of sugar?

[vickiraeborn]

@aksblr Have you tried the fine baking sugar that comes in a carton? It isn't "superfine" but it is called Baker's Sugar, I think, and it makes this icing terrific. MY only question is "what about the vanilla?" Did I miss it, or did she not put any in? My problem with flavoring is that the vanilla turns the frosting kind of off-white. I know that you can buy fake vanilla that comes clear, but I don't like the tinny taste of it. I usually use a little almond extract...

[OnceUponALife1014]

@vickiraeborn She added 2 tsps of vanilla

[sonicxisforever]

@vickiraeborn I use the black vanilla extract! I think the recipe is easy,I just add Sugar (powedered) 2 table spoons of butter, 2 tablespoons of milk, and vanilla extract. You can also add a little flour if you want.

[spongekitkat0422]

@aksblr did you try using icing sugar instead? it's more powdery and not as gritty as regular sugar.

[31hunnybunch]

GROSS thats nasty, there is nothing fluffy about that what ever it is , you can use it as cement for the cracks of your house or sidewalk....I think id rather eat that other crap powder sugar , shorting and water , and i think that stuff is gross too but its better than your mess . OMG Tina Fey ya'll are to crazy lol....

[Annielyn42]

F***!

[MrRenalcala]

nasty

[techanddancer]

she looks like tina fey

[rosaleenauk]

basically you're making a roux with a pound of butter..?

[CACA0392]

low to medium high heat??? what the flying fuck is that???

[aZndushi]

@CACA0392 HAHAH IKR

[HomeSkilet99]

@CACA0392

low - medium high....heat. i kept listening to her and i figured thats what she meant.

[janer1977]

what does low to medium high heat mean?

[LeahBocus]

guess ths should be making butter icing...a whole load of butter

[Redalicous1]

Man , that is ALOT of butter... I want cream frosting not butter frosting -_-!!!

[bemi00]

or u could save time and just mix together some cream cheese, icing sugar and butter?

[joyceyvonna]

hmm...i tried this recipe before and the granulated sugar and butter made the frosting all grainy, droopy and gross. is it supposed to taste like that?

[xValLovesJellox]

Creamy?? looks like mashed potatoes!

[TheOrderOfThePoodle]

@xValLovesJellox I was thinking the same thing!!!

[sheryllamb]

@xValLovesJellox ......thats toooo funny!! hahaha

[DuctTapeCooley]

[siepie789]

@doggy291 i have one question (i'm a total beginner): once you've made this frosting and put it on the cake, can you put the whole cake in the refrigerator (for 1 hour... 1 day) to eat it later? I hope you can help me! Thanks

[joshy7312]

[Aphera2541]

[shinyztar6]

[SlowMoProductions7]

[Barbarainnc]

This type of cooked frosting NEEDS to be refrigerated, because of the milk in the recipe.

[thelemonberry]

i think it should be called butter frosting cause it has 1 pound of butter, :)

[angelpassedby09]

love it! thanks for the idea... ;-)

[cho525]

Its like a german buttercream that uses pastry cream.

[xxxrollingrockxxx2]

can you use a regular mixer like for cakes? or does it have to be a table mixer

[sharmaranjana30]

@xxxrollingrockxxx2 You can use a hand mixer. You don't have to have a stand one. I always use regular ones.

[IceAngelnoid]

@sharmaranjana30 thank you

[rottingballsack]

id like to make some creamy vanilla icing in your ass

[kareemtiheed]

I can do it way better....

[EmmyLuxeMakeUpInc]

That frosting looks curdled and horrible. Goodness.

[CRAAAAAZYGIRLY]

ive seen many frostings made this way

[michelleduongrocks]

im going to bake a cake for my dads birthday and i wanted to put icing on the cake i hope the icing turns out right and that it will taste good with the cake! ty for your video!

^_^

[stefaniehearts]

That is very helpful.

But an easier way is:

-One pound powdered sugar.

-One softened stick of butter.

-Two teaspoons of vanilla.

-Three tablespoons milk.

Then mix for 1-2 minutes at a medium speed.

[a86wanabe]

@stefaniehearts i used to make icing that way but its always too sweet for me!! ;p and if i dont put that much sugar itll taste weired!!!! i didnt try this way yet....i hope it will work

[bambihofilena]

[TheLolsmiley10]

[lrusso2327]

OMG, look at all that butter! I bet thats healthy!

[FrostaFlamara]

@lrusso2327

i bet thats expensive...

[TheHotpinklollipop]

DAMN that butter is bigger than my cat :S

[Saffron49]

I love buttercream frosting. I was always use to icing (glaze like) and that horrible royal marzipan stuff. I could just dive into a whole vat of the stuff. This recipe is definitely different .

[MissSassMasster]

Is it good plz tell me soon!!!!????

[Harpiieboy]

Can you give me the recipe with grams not cups for measuring ?

[tropic0sweetie]

I love how at 0:46 she's explaining not to stop stirring....and she stops. Haha

[norxcontacts]

[tropic0sweetie]

@smartestgirl12 I know!!! >:( She's crazy!

[101chevere]

Can i used power sugar ?

[norxcontacts]

@101chevere That's the same thing as confectioner's.

[jlovesg]

This is a really delicious butter cream icing if you are looking to try something new:)

[bagebih]

are you sure of this recipe or this is a spam recipe?hehe

[harpal03]

Just incorporate it LOL

[samgreycat]

I think you need to learn about what the Magnolia Bakery does and it's success.

[tikawhakaaroha]

...OR you could just, y'know, buy some.

[lycry]

jesus..who eats so much butter?

[quepiola]

butter contains protein, so what s the lol for?

[Fearlessberry]

thats a LOT of butter!
