ALMOND BUTTERCREAM FROSTING

Steps:

• ⭐️Whip the butter and almond. Add butter and almond extract to the bowl of the mixer. Whip for 1-2 minutes until it's light and fluffy.
• ⭐️Add the other ingredients. Add the powdered sugar, milk, and salt. Slowly blend until powdered sugar is mixed in. Add more milk if the mixture is too thick. Turn mixer to high speed and whisk for 2-3 minutes or until the icing is light and fluffy. Add more milk to get the consistency you'd like.
• Add to decorating bag. Place desired tip into the decorating bag. Fold the top of the bag over to avoid getting icing on the outside of the bag. Fill the bag with icing, just over half full. Twist the top and gently squeeze until icing comes out. Use as desired. Store in the refrigerator or freeze the leftovers.

JOHN'S ALMOND SWISS MERINGUE BUTTERCREAM

Steps:

• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter until smooth.
• In the heatproof bowl of an electric mixer set over a pan of simmering water, combine egg whites and sugar. Whisk constantly until the sugar has dissolved and mixture is very warm to the touch, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Attach the bowl to the electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment; beat, starting on low speed and gradually increasing to high, until stiff, glossy peaks form, about 5 minutes. Add almond extract and continue beating until incorporated. Switch to the paddle attachment. With the mixer on medium-high speed, quickly add butter, a few tablespoons at a time, beating until mixture is smooth and has increased in volume. (If the frosting appears to separate after all the butter has been added, continue beating until smooth again.), Reduce speed to low, and continue beating for 2 minutes to eliminate any air bubbles.
