Rich and creamy buttercream frosting filled with warm cinnamon spice flavor. This luscious cinnamon buttercream is an easy way to elevate your baked goods this holiday season!
Combine the butter, powdered sugar, cream, vanilla and cinnamon in a large bowl.
Beat together the frosting ingredients on medium speed until light and fluffy (about 1 minute). Add more cinnamon to taste. Next add a pinch of salt (more as desired). If needed, add more cream as needed to reach desired consistency. If piping, you will want to keep the frosting thick.
Then frost on cooled cupcakes or cake.
Notes
Piping: If you'd like to pipe the cupcakes like I have in the photos, you will want to double the frosting. I like to use a 1M tip. Check out this post: how to frost a cupcake.Variation: If preferred you can use a cinnamon cream cheese frosting which is on these churro cupcakes.
