Elderflower, the white bloom of the elderberry tree, is often used in cocktails and desserts. The elderflower extract used in this fluffy buttercream is a bit of a splurge but well worth the expense for the marvelous floral notes it imparts.
Ingredients
½ cup salted butter, softened
1½ cups confectioners’ sugar
1 tablespoon whole milk
¼ teaspoon elderflower extract*
Instructions
In a medium bowl, beat together butter, sugar, milk, and elderflower extract with a mixer, beginning at low speed and gradually increasing to high speed, until light and fluffy. Use immediately.
