Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 jar (7 ounces/198 grams) marshmallow fluff
- 112 sticks (14 ounces/397 grams) unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1 cup (120 grams) powdered sugar
Flavor Enhancers:
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
Instructions
- Utilize an electric mixer to whip butter until it transforms into a pale, billowy consistency, approximately 2 minutes at medium speed.
- Methodically incorporate powdered sugar into the butter mixture, blending gradually to prevent lumps and ensure smooth integration.
- Introduce vanilla extract and salt, mixing thoroughly until ingredients are completely harmonized.
- Gently fold marshmallow fluff into the buttercream, beating at low speed until the texture becomes exceptionally light, airy, and voluminous.
- If the icing appears too soft, refrigerate for 10-15 minutes to achieve optimal spreading consistency, ensuring it remains spreadable and maintains its delicate structure.
Notes
- Ensure butter is at room temperature for smoother, lump-free mixing and optimal texture.
- Use a stand mixer or electric hand mixer to achieve the perfect light and fluffy consistency.
- Adjust marshmallow fluff quantity for a more intense or subtle marshmallow flavor depending on personal preference.
- Refrigerate icing briefly if it becomes too soft, which helps maintain stable piping or spreading consistency.
