Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsalted butter softened to room temperature
  • 3 cups sugar sifted for a silky texture
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup fresh raspberries
  • 1 pinch salt

Instructions
 

  • Step 1: Creaming the Butter Begin by placing the softened butter in a mixing bowl. Using an electric mixer, whip the butter at medium speed until it turns pale and gains a fluffy texture. This step is essential for achieving a silky smooth frosting.
  • Step 2: Incorporating the Confectioners' Sugar Gradually add the sifted confectioners' sugar to the whipped butter, allowing it to blend seamlessly. This process ensures that the sugar dissolves completely, resulting in a luscious consistency.
  • Step 3: Infusing the Raspberry Flavor Gently crush the fresh raspberries and strain the puree to remove seeds. Incorporate the raspberry puree into the butter-sugar mixture and continue mixing until the vibrant color and fruity aroma are evenly distributed.
  • Step 4: Adding the Finishing Touches Introduce the pure vanilla extract and a pinch of salt to the mixture, enhancing the overall flavor profile. Blend the ingredients until they are fully integrated, and the frosting boasts a velvety texture.
