My first buttercream…


I made cupcakes tonight… I need practice.  But I will get it!  As I was making the Swiss Buttercream Frosting, I was CERTAIN I had screwed up royally and the amount of butter in it alone made me think that I had just wasted 10 dollars in ingredients!!!  But as my trusty Kitchen Aid Mixer (I think it needs a name) did its thing, it all smoothed out, but it still needed more beating.  THEN it would be perfect.

This is my first attempt so I will let the pictures do the talking.  Enjoy!
