Instructions
00:00 Introduction
00:23 Place white chocolate in a small, heat-proof bowl and heat for 30 seconds. Stir very well, then return to microwave and heat in 15-second increments, stirring very well in between, until chocolate is completely smooth and melted.
01:15 Set chocolate aside to cool for at least 15 minutes and no longer warm to the touch (otherwise it will melt the butter and you’ll have a greasy mess).
01:29 While chocolate is cooling, place softened butter in the bowl of a stand mixer (or you may use a large bowl and an electric hand mixer) and beat until creamy and well-whipped.
01:55 With mixer on low-speed, gradually add melted, cooled chocolate and stir well.
02:42 Gradually add powdered sugar , scraping down the sides and bottom of the bowl periodically to ensure that all ingredients are well combined.
03:13 Sprinkle in salt and vanilla extract and stir well.
03:31 With mixer on low-speed, gradually add heavy cream to frosting. Gradually increase speed to high and beat for 30-60 seconds or until desired consistency is reached (should be light, creamy, fluffy, and slightly increased in volume). If you beat too much air into the icing and would like a smoother frosting, use a spatula to cut through the batter and work out any air bubbles.
04:11 Pipe or spread frosting onto prepared, cooled baked goods.
Notes
¹You can use white chocolate bars or white chocolate chips. If using the chips, use a premium brand like Ghirardelli. You will not need to chop the chocolate first if substituting chips. 6 oz of chocolate chips is approximately 1 cup.
²I recommend unsalted butter (this allows us to best control the flavor of our icing), but if you only have salted on hand you can use that, just leave out the salt that is called for.

The rosettes on the cupcakes are so perfect! ♥️
I read the recipe notes. You offer quite comprehensive observations, suggestions, and recommendations. A must is to read 'white chocolate' ingredients. Most are an ersatz concoction using palm oil. Maybe not so good for you, not as enjoyable in flavor. Will try this with a coconut cupcake. Thanks for the recipe..
I just made this…oh my goodness 😊. It’s so good. I’m thinking next time I’ll make a devil’s food cake with this buttercream and strawberry filling in the middle 😊. Thanks.
I made this frosting for my parents 50th Anniversary cake the other day and it was amazing... like you said it's not too sweet and has white chocolate in it; how can you go wrong with that combination? :) Haha... thank you for this!

@@SugarSpunRun yes I will I love frosting
I love the bright white color of it. I'm gonna give this a try 😊. Keep up the great content 👍🏾. Quick question does it hold up well? I'm from the islands and we can pretty hot and humid
Hmm unfortunately, like most frostings, this will start to melt in the heat. :(
I am in love with your recipes. Thank you so much for helping new bakers like me. Can we add gel color to this frosting. Pls reply
Thank you so much! Gel food color will work just fine here. 😊
Hi! Thank you for the elaborate recipe. I was wondering how sweet is this buttercream compared to the SMBC?
This one is sweeter, not as sweet as a typical American buttercream, but sweeter than Swiss Meringue Buttercream. :)
@@SugarSpunRun thank you so much for your reply
I am from kerala, where is your place
Anyone know if this can be done with swiss merengue as well?
You can add white chocolate to Swiss meringue. 😊
Hello can regular gel food colouring be added to this?
Sure thing! :)
@@SugarSpunRun thank you for your prompt response.
Can this be piped for cake decorating?
Absolutely! :)
Does the chocolate need to be tempered?
You need to heat it up then let it cool completely just as I do in the video. 😊
p.s. love the pic..
Can i use this on the cake for frosting???
Absolutely! 😊
Thank you so much.....i love all your recipes they're all amazing..... 😊
Is this a stable as ABC? Will it hold up in hot climates?
It is a little less stable, but really none of them are going to hold up in hot climates.
