  • Summary

    One hallmark of meringue buttercream is that it spreads like a dream. This versatile version is flavored very simply with vanilla. The Dog Cake, Owl Cake, and Fish Cake each require one recipe of the frosting, although you'll have some left over after frosting the owl and fish. Buttercream freezes well, so save it for another day.

    Ingredients

    • 3 cups sugar
    • 12 large egg whites, room temperature
    • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
    • 10 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature, cut into pieces
    • 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
