This is the Strawberry Buttercream you have always wanted. This truly is a party in your mouth.  A full pound of strawberries are added to a simple buttercream and the result is just short of amazing for a recipe that takes only 30 minutes.

Strawberry Buttercream Frosting

1.2 oz pkg freeze dried strawberries (2 cups unprocessed)

sugar

unsalted butter,

almond extract

milk

Red Food coloring as needed, optional

Remove the package of desiccant in the package if there is one.  Place half the strawberries and half the powdered sugar in the bowl of a food processor or blender.  Stop several times and stir the ingredients being sure to get to the bottom.

Process until completely powdered. Remove from the bowl and repeat with the second half of the strawberries and powdered sugar.

Place the ingredients including 3 tablespoons of milk in the bowl of mixer.  Mix on low to combine then raise the speed to medium and beat until light and fluffy, scraping often.

Add the red food coloring if using to the desired color.  Use immediately.

I used this frosting for a Birthday cake for and elderly friend.  We had a small dinner party of 6 and everyone raved about it.  I was nervous when her son asked for Strawberry because I am not a fan of artificial strawberry flavoring.  The freeze dried berries did the trick!  Thank you Helen.
