The Perfect White Chocolate Frosting Recipes

WHITE CHOCOLATE FROSTING RECIPE

Steps:

• Place the heavy cream and white chocolate chips into a heatproof bowl. Heat in the microwave on a high power for 1 minute.
• Let the white chocolate / heavy cream mixture sit for 1 minute to allow the heat from the bowl to continue to melt the white chocolate chips.
• Stir until smooth, then set aside to cool for about 10 minutes. If you have any bits of chocolate left unmelted, heat in additional 10 second increments and stir until the mixture is smooth.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer or a separate large bowl, beat the room temperature butter on a low speed for 30 seconds with a paddle attachment or hand mixer until smooth.
• Add in the vanilla extract and salt. Beat on low until combined.
• Pour in the cooled white chocolate and heavy cream mixture, and mix on a low speed.
• Slowly add in the powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time.
• Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed.
• Mix on a low speed until the ingredients are fully incorporated and the desired consistency is reached.
• If the frosting is too thick, add in additional cream, 1 teaspoon at a time. If the frosting is too thin, add in more powdered sugar, a quarter of a cup at a time.
• Stir by hand with a rubber spatula to make the frosting extra smooth at the end, then cover with plastic wrap and set aside until you're ready to use it!

Steps:

• Melt the white chocolate chips and heavy cream together either in the microwave in 15-second increments or over a double boiler. Make sure to just heat until incorporated, not hot. Set aside.
• In a standing mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, slowly mix the room temperature butter and vanilla together while slowly adding the powdered sugar. Slowly pour in the white chocolate ganache with the mixer still on low. At this point, the chocolate should be slightly warm but not hot. Add more powdered sugar, if it's not the right consistency. It should be creamy yet firm enough to pipe.
