Plum Buttercream
Serves: approximately 1 cup
 
Ingredients
  • ½ cup unsalted butter*, softened
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 cups confectioners’ sugar
  • ¼ cup plum preserves
Instructions
  1. In a large bowl, beat together butter and salt with a mixer at medium speed until smooth and creamy, 1 to 2 minutes, stopping to scrape down sides of bowl.
  2. With mixer at low speed, gradually add confectioners’ sugar to butter mixture, alternately with 2 tablespoons preserves at a time, beginning and ending with confectioners’ sugar and beating until smooth after each addition. Increase speed to medium, and beat until buttercream is light and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes, stopping to scrape down sides of bowl as needed. Use immediately.
