Whipped Dulce de Leche Buttercream
Picture
One of my most favorite desserts in the whole wide world is Haagen-Dazs' dulce de leche ice cream! Oh how I love the smooth creaminess of the ice cream paired with the amazing taste of the caramel-like dulce de leche! It's amazing!! So what better way to celebrate one of my favorite desserts than to create a buttercream that reminds me of this wonderful ice cream flavor! And of course, I began with the frosting that reminds me most of ice cream as my base... my Whipped Buttercream! I hope you enjoy! :)
Picture
My Whipped Buttercream is a cooked recipe, so begin by placing a medium saucepan on the stove. Pour 6 ounces of whole milk into the saucepan.
Picture
Next, pour in 2 ounces of heavy whipping cream.
Picture
Add 5 ounces of granulated sugar to the saucepan.
Picture
Sift in two tablespoons of All Purpose flour.
Picture
Cook ingredients on medium-high heat. Stir constantly with a wire whisk to keep mixture from burning. Bring mixture to boiling.
Picture
Boil mixture until it becomes thick like custard. Ensure custard is thick enough to leave a nice coating on a rubber spatula. Remove custard from heat and set aside to cool to room temperature.

Next, place 1 stick of unsalted butter (4 ounces), 1/2 stick of salted butter (2 ounces), and 1/4 cup of high ratio shortening into the bowl of a stand mixer (or other bowl suitable for a hand mixer, if using). All ingredients need to be room temperature.

Add 1 1/2 teaspoons of pure vanilla extract into the mixing bowl.
Picture
Blend butter mixture together until it is well mixed and fluffy.
Picture
Pour cooled custard mixture into the mixing bowl.
Picture
Add 1/4 cup of dulce de leche to the mixing bowl. I like to use Nestlé's La Lechera canned dulce de leche! It's delicious! Mix all ingredients together on highest speed for 3 to 5 minutes until frosting is light and fluffy.

So creamy and so delicious! I hope you have enjoyed this tutorial! God bless!!
