I am in the process of making buttercream icing for a fbct. Can I make the buttercream using the Wilton recipe but just substitute the cup of shortening for butter? My mixer isn't that large so I can't do a double batch and I already have the cup of butter in my mixer.....yes that will teach me not to start before reading my recipe!!!
Well, if it's already in the mixer, then you've already resolved the problem by now. All butter tastes good; but it won't be pure white (as you probably know by now.)
Thanks everyone, I went with it and it tastes delicious although I don't think I will ice the cake with it as it seems to break down very quickly and I am not sure if it will crust enough for me to smooth it. I might use it for the filling though because it tastes so good!
Thanks again!
