Fresh Strawberry Buttercream Frosting
This super creamy and fluffy strawberry buttercream frosting recipe uses fresh strawberry puree rather than processed strawberry syrup... A must try!
Servings: 3 cups
Ingredients
- 1 cup salted butter softened
- ¼ cup fresh strawberry puree
- 4 cups confectioners sugar sifted
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 3 tablespoons heavy cream
Instructions
- Using a paddle beater, beat softened butter on medium speed for about 3 minutes.
- Add sifted confectioners' sugar and strawberry puree. Stir on low until incorporated, scraping the sides as needed.
- Add the vanilla extract and 2 tablespoons of heavy cream. Beat on medium-high for 3 minutes or until light and fluffy, again stopping to scrape the sides once or twice.
- If a thinner frosting is desired, add additional heavy cream 1 tablespoon at a time until desired consistency is reached.
Recipe Notes
I used regular pure vanilla extract in this batch, but if you prefer a truer pink color, you’ll want to look for clear vanilla extract.
