White Chocolate Icing Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl, beat the butter and confectioners sugar at low speed until fluffy.

Steps:

• Whisk the egg whites, sugar and salt in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water (do not let the bowl touch the water) until the mixture is warm and the sugar dissolves. Remove the bowl from the pan; let cool slightly.
• Beat the egg white mixture in a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment (or with a hand mixer) on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, 12 to 15 minutes. Beat in the butter a few pieces at a time, then continue beating until smooth. (Don't worry if the mixture looks separated at first-it will come together as you keep beating.)

• Use immediately or store in a glass Mason jar in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Before using, set the frosting on the counter for 1 to 2 hours, to allow it to come to room temperature, then stir with a flexible spatula until spreadable. This frosting works best at room temperature.

Steps:

• Prepare, bake and cool cupcakes.
• Melt 2 1/4 c white chocolate chips, cool slightly.
• On medium speed, beat butter until fluffy. Beat in melted chocolate, vanilla, confectioners' sugar until smooth.

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Grease and flour three 8-inch round cake pans or line with parchment paper.
• Place chopped white chocolate in the top of a double boiler over simmering water. Stir frequently, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching, until chocolate is melted, about 5 minutes.
• Cream sugar and butter together using an electric mixer until fluffy. Add 4 egg yolks, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in vanilla extract and melted chocolate.
