Pumpkin Spice Buttercream

October 9, 2018 by idocakes Leave a Comment

This delicious icing is the perfect addition to your fall cakes. I printed off a recipe from Two Sisters Crafting two years ago and was going through my huge stack of recipes to try and thought this would be perfect for the cake I was making for our Thanksgiving dinner this past weekend.

Super Bonus! I had about a half can of organic pumpkin left and the grand-doggies got a Thanksgiving treat. I mixed it in with their dry food dinner and they scarfed it down and passed out tummies full under the dinner table while we had our dinner.

This is my take on the sisters’ recipe. It is awesome.

(I make my own pumpkin pie spice.)

I cream the butter first and then add the pumpkin usually. Add more icing sugar or water if you need to to get the proper consistency. Remember- it's butter so that after you ice the cake refrigerate it unless it's going to be consumed straight away. It's going to firm up in the fridge.
