In your stand mixer or with handheld beaters, cream the butter on medium speed for five minutes, scraping down the bowl occasionally. You should see your butter turn from yellow to a creamy white.
- 2. To your creamed butter, add in the vanilla extract and marshmallow fluff .Mix until combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl making sure all butter is mixed in, and then mix on medium speed for 1 minute.
- 3. Next, add in 2 cups of sifted powdered sugar, being sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl. Mix for 1 minute on medium speed.
- 4. Lastly, with your mixer on medium to high speed add in 3 Tbsp heavy cream, adding in 1 Tbsp at a time until fully incorporated. This will help stabilize the buttercream without adding more sugar and making the frosting too sweet.
