Prepare the Vanilla Buttercream
-
Use a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat the butter until smooth and creamy, about two minutes.
-
Slowly add in your powdered sugar and mix to combine.
-
Add in the vanilla extract, half-and-half, and salt and mix on medium-high speed for about three to four minutes, until you get the thick consistency you're looking for in a buttercream.
Variation:
You can definitely use heavy cream or milk in this recipe. I would prefer heavy cream over milk because you might not get the same creaminess using milk.
If you want to make this recipe dairy-free, margarine would work well. You can also substitute half-and-half with almond milk or soy milk, or even water. Just know the taste might be a little different, and the consistency might be off.
Feel free to add a few drops of gel food coloring to match the color of your theme.
