Biscoff Buttercream Frosting

It seems like I keep hearing about how amazing Biscoff spread is, but I hadn't had a chance to try it until just this recently. I gave this the spoon test -


What?

Life you've never done that?

Well, ahem, as I was saying, I gave it the old spoon test and decided it would make a pretty incredible frosting.  Since I  had just whipped up a batch of Chocolate Cupcakes, there was no time like the present to give it a whirl.

Biscoff Buttercream Frosting

Ingredients:

 1 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 cup Creamy Biscoff spread

3-1/2 cups powdered sugar

2-3 tablespoons milk

Directions:

Cream together the butter and Biscoff spread, then gradually add the powdered sugar.  Add the milk one tablespoon at a time until the frosting takes on the consistency you like.

I took a serrated butter knife and cut a small cone shape out of the top of the cupcakes, which I then filled with the Biscoff Buttercream.  Pinch the tip of the upside down cone off, then gently push the remaining cake back into the frosting-filled hole.  Pipe the frosting on the top of the cupcakes and decorate with mini chocolate chips for a whimsical presentation.

Once I started piping the frosting on, I'd wished I'd added one more tablespoon of milk so the frosting would be a bit creamier - but regardless this frosting is so yummy!
