1-Minute Frosting in 5 Flavours – Use it for Cakes or Cupcakes

January 27, 2023 by Roxy

A 1-minute frosting in 5 flavours for your cakes and cupcakes! How awesome is that? It can’t get any easier and faster than this to make your delicious frosting, and with only 3 ingredients. Also, it’s a great frosting if you’re not a fan of buttercream as it uses mascarpone cheese as the main ingredient. The key to getting the right piping consistency for this frosting is to not overmix it or mix it on high speed. 

I’ll show you how to make it in 5 flavours: vanilla, raspberry, Oreo, Nutella & cocoa. 

Ingredients

  • 375 g mascarpone cheese, cold from the fridge  
  • 185 g sweetened condensed milk, cold from the fridge 

Add the flavour of choice:

  • Vanilla: 1 tsp vanilla bean paste
  • Raspberry: 1 Tbsp raspberry powder 
  • Oreo: 3-4 Tbsp crushed Oreos
  • Nutella: 2 big Tbsp (150 g) Nutella
  • Cocoa: 4 teaspoons cocoa powder, sifted

This makes enough frosting for 12 big cupcakes & 12 mini cupcakes OR 18 big cupcakes. Or it’s enough to frost a 20 cm (7 inch) round cake. 

Directions

Place the mascarpone cheese and condensed in a mixing bowl. You can use a simple hand mixer or a stand mixer for this. 

Mix for 50 seconds on low-medium speed. Stop halfway through to scrape the sides of the bowl with a spatula. 

Add the flavour of choice and mix for 10 more seconds on low speed.

Do not overmix as the frosting will get too soft and won’t have a piping consistency! 

Also, if you want to make more frosting, you need to adjust the mixing time. For example, if you double the ingredients, you can almost double the time. I’d mix for about 1.5 minutes the mascarpone cheese and condensed milk before adding the Nutella and mixing for another 10-15 seconds.

Voila, as easy as that! 

Frost your cupcakes or cake and enjoy!

Note that the cocoa frosting is the smoothest and the one that holds its shape the best. The raspberry frosting holds its shape even better but it will have a grainier consistency due to the bits of frozen dried raspberries. Try them all and leave a comment below to let me know which one you liked the most!
