With a rich and silky smooth custard-like character, this easy German Buttercream recipe (Crème Mousseline) is absolutely divine, my favorite buttercream frosting. It's composed of a simple pastry cream base that is enriched with butter, which is what makes it stand apart from more traditional sugar-heavy buttercreams.
