It Seemed So Easy

Hey

I made these cupcakes the other week and the frosting was amazing. It seemed so easy to make as well and I think it tasted better than using a flavouring. So I thought I would share it.

The frosting was made from three ingredients:

• Icing sugar
• Butter
• Fresh raspberries

First you cream the icing sugar and butter together to make a butter cream frosting. Then you press the fresh raspberries through a sieve so that you only get the juice going into the frosting. I found that once the juice was combined I had to add more icing sugar so that I could get it back to a consistency that was able to pipe.

As I had to add more icing sugar, it meant I had lots of the frosting left over. So I added up serving my cupcakes with some of the frosting on the side and with fresh raspberries.

As I now have a nozzle designed for filling cupcakes, I can't wait to try this frosting inside cupcakes and finishing them off with a chocolate frosting.
