Flavored lightly with coffee, this variation on Rosie's Buttercream has a
lovely cafe au lait color.

fluffy, about 5 minutes. Stop the machine several times to scrape down the
sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula.
3. Transfer the buttercream to a medium sized mixing bowl and, using the
paddle attachment of an electric mixer, continue to beat on medium-high
speed, until the buttercream is white and fluffy, 15 to 20 minutes. Stop
the mixer to scrape the bowl several times with a rubber spatula (If you do
not have a paddle attachment, you can use the whisk) Use the buttercream
for frosting within an hour or it will need rewhipping.
