  • 2/3 cup water
  • 5 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 2 tbsp dark rum (or 4 tbsp rum extract)

  2. Meanwhile, place egg whites into a clean, stainless-steel mixer bowl and with the whip atachment, beat on low speed until foamy. Raise the speed to medium high and whip until stiff, but not dry.
  3. While the mixer is running, add your brown sugar syrup slowly into the beaten egg whites in a steady stream. continue beating on high speed until the mixture has cooled down-about 3 minutes.
  4. Add the softened butter 1 tablespoons at a time with the mixer running. Add vanilla and rum. Keep beating the buttercream until it is smooth and creamy.
  5. Please Note: After you add the soft butter, the buttercream is going to break meaning it will look curdled and runny. Don't worry! Keep on whipping and it will come together!.
