Creamy German Buttercream Frosting
Light yet decadent, this custard buttercream is the perfect topping to your favorite chocolate cake recipe. Made by combining pastry cream and butter, this frosting is similar in taste and texture to a whipped cream icing. Though it does require some extra work, it will be well worth it in the end! This German buttercream recipe is also less sweet than traditional American buttercream, making it a nice alternative to those who enjoy less sugary frosting.
