The best buttercream I’ve ever had. Used this in a cookie dough cake and it worked perfectly – the frosting by itself smells like cookie dough and tastes butterscotchy with just the right salt balance! Not too sweet and so perfectly creamy. My new go-to frosting that I will use whenever I can 🙂

In reply to Alyssa Werst. Hi Alyssa! I haven't personally tried it. I think it could work if it is allowed to cool completely before using. Let me know how it goes if you try it. :)

Wow!! It surpassed my expectations! This was the dreamiest, most silky frosting with the richest flavor. It was well worth the extra time and effort. My husband was wowed by the melt in your mouth texture. No problems at all when directions are followed. Thanks so much!!

Made for my son’s birthday cake and it turned out beautiful. I wasn’t sure about using my glass bowl that came with my mixer so I bought a metal one and very happy I did. Thank you for this recipe. I had a lot of compliments and requests for the recipe.

In reply to Laly. Hi Laly! While you are correct that usually only water is equal, it is very, very close when using egg whites so any of these measurements will work here. :)

Hello, thank you very much for your recipes.
Just a small note, 210 g of egg white is not equal to 210 ml of egg white. Only in water this equality is fulfilled ,1 liter of water=1000 g of water.
