Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 oz white chocolate
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 3 cups powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 pinch salt
Instructions
Melt the white chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water, stirring constantly until smooth. Alternatively, you can melt the chocolate in the microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring each time. Allow it to cool slightly but not harden.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter and cream cheese together using a hand or stand mixer equipped with a paddle attachment. Mix on medium speed until light, fluffy, and well-combined, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the melted white chocolate to the butter and cream cheese mixture. Mix on low speed until fully incorporated.
Gradually add the powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time, while mixing on low. Once all the powdered sugar is incorporated, increase the speed to medium and continue mixing until smooth and creamy.
Add the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt, then mix for an additional 30 seconds until evenly distributed.
Use immediately to frost your desired baked goods or store covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Bring to room temperature and rewhip before using if stored.
