The Scootabaker's Chocolate Buttercream
Recipe from The Scoot A Baker
*my cake is 3 layer - 8 inch round and the recipe is more than enough to frost about 36 cupcakes depending on how much buttercream you like on your cupcakes. *
20 ounces unsalted butter, softened
24 ounces confectioners sugar, sifted
18 ounces Belgian chocolate (high quality chocolate), chopped, melted & cooled
2 tablespoons heavy whipping cream
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon instant coffee granules
1. Mix coffee granules w/ vanilla and whipping cream until coffee is dissolved. Set aside.
2. Beat butter until smooth, about a minute on high. Add sugar, beat on low then on high for about 2 minutes or until fluffy. Add coffee mix, and beat on low then high for another 2 minutes. Without scraping bowl down, pour melted chocolate over buttercream. Beat until just incorporated. Scrape down sides of bowl and beat on high for 10 seconds. You're done!
