Calories 1389kcal
INGREDIENTS
- 500 g (2 ⅕ cups) butter unsalted and softened
- 395 g (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 8 (8) chocolate chip cookies regular size
- ¼ cup (¼ cup) dark chocolate grated
INSTRUCTIONS
- Prepare the Ingredients: Grate enough dark chocolate to make up ¼ cup and set aside. Crush the chocolate chip cookies into a fine crumb using a stick blender, food processor, or a zip lock bag and rolling pin. A fine crumb is essential to prevent clogging the piping tip during decoration.
- Mix the Butter: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened butter with a hand mixer or stand mixer for 2-3 minutes until it is light and fluffy.
- Combine with Condensed Milk: Add the entire can of sweetened condensed milk to the butter and mix thoroughly for 1-2 minutes until fully blended.
- Add Cookies and Chocolate: Fold in the crushed cookies and grated chocolate using a silicone spatula or mix on low speed until well incorporated. Ensure no large chunks remain to avoid clogging the piping tip.
- Ready to Decorate: Use the buttercream to decorate cupcakes, layer cakes, fill macarons, whoopie pies, cookie sandwiches, or top brownies.
NOTES
Crumb Consistency: Ensure cookies are finely crushed to maintain a smooth piping experience.
Storage: Store leftover buttercream in an airtight container in the freezer for up to two months; simply thaw overnight in the refrigerator before using.
Flavor Variations: Experiment with different types of cookies for a variety of flavors.
Decorating Tip: If using a piping bag, select a tip with a larger opening to accommodate any small bits of cookies or chocolate.
Usage Ideas: Beyond cupcakes, try using this buttercream as a decadent filling for doughnuts or as a layer between cookie bars.
