This Not So Sweet Buttercream is stable, versatile, and not as sweet as traditional buttercream recipes. Leave the horrific comment of "this frosting is too sweet" behind you! This recipe is simple and easy to make.
On medium speed, beat together the butter and cream cheese until smooth and fully incorporated.
Add vanilla extract, beat until incorporated.
In a separate bowl sift together the powdered sugar, meringue powder, and corn starch.
On low to medium speed, add 1 cup of the powdered sugar mixture to the cream cheese mixture at a time, scraping down the bowl between each cup.
Once all the powdered sugar mixture is incorporated, turn mixer to medium high and beat for 30-45 seconds.
