Perfect White Chocolate Frosting Recipe 35 Food

WHITE CHOCOLATE FROSTING

Steps:

• **Melt the white chocolate in advance and allow it to come to room temperature. If it is hot when you add it to the whipped butter, it will melt the butter and the texture of the frosting will be off.
• Using a stand mixer, beat the butter for 2 minutes until it is almost white in appearance. Drizzle in the white chocolate, mixing and scraping the bowl as needed as you pour it in.
• Add the powdered sugar and vanilla.
• Beat the frosting for 2-3 minutes until the frosting is smooth and creamy.

CHOCOLATE BUTTERCREAM FROSTING

Steps:

• Chop the chocolates and place them in a heat-proof bowl set over a pan simmering water. Stir until melted and set aside until cooled to room temperature.
• Mix the egg whites, sugar, cream of tartar, and salt in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a whisk attachment. Place the bowl of egg whites over the pan of simmering water and heat the egg whites until they are warm to the touch, about 5 minutes. Return the bowl to the electric mixer and whisk on high speed for 5 minutes, or until the meringue is cool and holds a stiff peak.
• Add the butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, while beating on medium speed. Scrape down the bowl, add the melted chocolate, vanilla, espresso, and rum, if using, and mix for 1 minute or until the chocolate is completely blended in. If the buttercream seems very soft, allow it to cool, and beat it again.

WHITE CHOCOLATE BUTTERCREAM FROSTING

• Beat on high speed for 3-4 minutes, scraping the bowl with a spatula.

" PERFECT" CHOCOLATE FROSTING

Steps:

• Place a large bowl, filled halfway with ice, in the sink (a bowl that is large enough to hold the pot that you will cook the frosting in).
• In a medium size pot over medium low heat, melt chocolate, cream, and butter.
• Stirring constantly, cook the mixture until all of the butter and chocolate melts and thickens.
• Cook for 5-6 minutes.
• DO NOT LET BOIL.
• Remove pot from heat.
• Whisk in the sifted confectioners' sugar until mixture becomes smooth (approximately 1 minute), then put the pot on top of the bowl of ice (be careful to not allow any ice from the larger bowl to get into pot with the chocolate mixture).
• Beat with an electric mixer on low speed for 4-5 minutes until frosting becomes smooth, thick, and fudgy.
• Remove from ice.
• Spread onto cooled cake layers.
• The frosting will thicken as it sets up.
• If the frosting gets too hard to spread, put back on LOW heat and stir constantly until you get the spreading consistency desired.
• ***I have been adding 1 Tbs. of light corn syrup to the initial heavy cream and chocolate mixture to add more glossiness to the frosting.***.

PERFECT CHOCOLATE FROSTING (CAKE MIX DOCTOR)

Steps:

• Place a large mixing bowl full of ice in the kitchen sink.
• Place the chocolate chips, half and half, and butter in a medium-size saucepan over medium heat.
• Stir the mixture constantly until the chips and butter melt and the mixture thickens, 5 to 6 minutes. Do not let it boil.
• Remove the pan from the heat.
• Whisk the confectioners' sugar into the mixture until it becomes smooth.
• Then, place the saucepan in the bowl of ice, taking special care not to let any of the ice water spill into the saucepan.
• Beat the mixture with an electric mixer set on low speed until the frosting thickens and is satiny and fudgelike in appearance, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Spread onto the cake of your choice. The frosting will stiffen up as it sets. If it gets too hard to spread, simply place the saucepan back over low heat and stir until it reaches spreading consistency.
