- Combine the egg whites and sugar in a heatproof bowl.
- Place the bowl over a bain-marie (a pot of simmering water) and heat the mixture, whisking constantly until it reaches about 60°C and the sugar has fully dissolved.
- Remove the bowl from the heat and continue to whip the mixture with a hand mixer until it cools to about 30°C and forms a glossy meringue.
- Gradually add softened unsalted butter, whipping continuously until the buttercream becomes smooth, fluffy, and light in texture.
