Best Buttercream Shots Recipes
CHOCOLATE BUTTERCREAM FROSTING... SHOTS?
I was reading a feature in our paper on frosting shots- yes, frosting shots! Apparently in some cities this is catching on quite fast. I clipped this recipe and have been moving it from here to there for a month. I thought I better post it for safe keeping. I personally would use this on a chocolate cake, but for the brave, pipe into small paper souffle cups and toss it back like a shot! I was able to frost a 9x13 cake and I believe this would be enough to frost 24 cupcakes or as the article stated, 30 frosting shots.

BUTTERCREAM SHOTS
A shot of frosting? Wait till the girls all hear about this!! They are served in the small paper candy cups, shot glass or similar. Serving size is based on small paper candy cups. The given time is a complete guesstimate as I haven't made this. This is supposed to make 20 but I have my doubts about that.

Steps:
- Whisk egg whites and sugar [and salt if using unsalted butter] together in a big metal bowl over a pot of simmering water.
- Whisk frequently until you can't feel the sugar granules when you rub the mixture between your fingers.
- Transfer mixture into the mixer and whip until it turns white and about doubles in size (here's a tip: when you transfer to the mixer, make sure you wipe the condensation off the bottom of the bowl that was over the water so that no water gets into the egg whites. This can keep them from whipping up properly.).
- Add the vanilla and powdered sugar.
- Finally, add the butter a pat at a time and whip the daylights out of it.
- Transfer frosting to cake decorating piping bag, pipe individual shots into paper candy cups, shot glass or similar. Serving size is based on small paper candy cups.

CHOCOLATE BUTTERCREAM FROSTING SHOTS
At a handful of cupcake storefronts around the country, the frosting shot has emerged as a short-but-sweet pick-me-up for urbanites and college students. The gist is generally the same bakery to bakery: For a small fee, customers get a dollop of their favorite frosting in a paper or plastic cup, about the size of a frozen yogurt sample. While some bakeries keep the frosting shot a strictly must-ask-for item, several cupcake shops have made it an official menu offering. Using marshmallow creme as the base of this faux buttercream frosting is a great cheat. This frosting whips up thick and chocolately and is great served as shots garnished with shaved dark chocolate. These are great for parties. Recipe is from a newspaper article.
