Quark buttercream with sweetened condensed milk is a versatile filling for pastries and cakes that comes together in minutes. Beat the butter with powdered sugar and vanilla sugar until pale, then gradually beat in the sweetened condensed milk and a tablespoon of cognac or dessert wine. Press the quark, a fresh cheese also known as farmer's cheese, through a sieve directly into the buttercream to keep it smooth and firm. If desired, stir in crumbled cookies or chocolate.

Instructions

Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.

  1. Beat the softened butter with the powdered sugar and vanilla sugar until pale.
  2. Add the sweetened condensed milk a little at a time, beating on high speed. Finally, add the cognac or wine.
  3. Press the quark through a sieve directly into the buttercream, then beat briefly until firm and fluffy.

Tip: Take the quark out of the refrigerator along with the butter so they are at the same temperature when beaten together. Cold quark could cause the buttercream to curdle.
