Instructions
Step 1
Begin by melting the white chocolate in the microwave in short bursts. Make sure to stir between intervals to avoid burning. Once melted, allow it to cool to a temperature of 32°C (90°F).
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, take the unsalted butter softened to room temperature. Beat it with the powdered sugar until it becomes fluffy and light in color. This process usually takes about 3-5 minutes on a medium speed.
Step 3
Once the white chocolate has cooled, slowly pour it into the butter mixture. Mix on low speed just until combined, taking care not to over-mix.
Step 4
Before starting this step, remove the cream cheese from the refrigerator to soften slightly. In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese on low speed to smooth out any lumps. This will help create a creamy texture later.
Step 5
Next, add the whipped cream and mix on low to medium speed until the mixture is smooth and homogeneous. If desired, add any food coloring at this stage to achieve the desired color.
Step 6
Finally, gently fold the cream with a silicone spatula to remove any trapped air bubbles. Your cream is now ready to use! The ideal application temperature is around 20-23°C (68-73°F).
Servings
For those summer picnics, spread this frosting over a light sponge cake with fresh fruit layers. Oh, the happiness it brings! It’s a simple way to impress your friends and family without spending hours in the kitchen. Make sure to save a bit for topping cupcakes or simply enjoying with a spoon – we won’t judge! 🍰🍓
Equipment
Make sure it has a melt function for hassle-free melting of chocolate. This helps prevent burning.

Variations
If you're looking to make this frosting gluten-free, simply ensure that all your ingredients are certified gluten-free; the white chocolate is key here!
Vegan Option: For a delightful vegan version, replace the white chocolate with vegan chocolate, use non-dairy butter, and substitute the cream cheese with a plant-based alternative. You won't miss the traditional ingredients, and you’ll still achieve that fluffy, mouthwatering texture! 🌱💕
Faq
- Can I use regular chocolate instead of white chocolate?
Absolutely! Just know that it will change the flavor profile of the frosting to a richer, deeper chocolate flavor.
- What should I do if my frosting is too runny?
Add more powdered sugar gradually until you reach your desired consistency. This frosting should hold up nicely!
- How can I make my frosting fluffier?
Beating the butter and sugar until it's light and fluffy is key. Make sure everything is at room temperature before you begin, too!
- Can I make frosting ahead of time?
Yes! Just store it in an air-tight container in the fridge, and make sure to re-whip it before using for best results.
- How long can the frosting stay in the fridge?
The frosting will keep for about a week. Just remember to cover it well to avoid any fridge odors!
- What’s the best way to apply frosting smoothly?
Use a spatula to spread it evenly, and for a professional finish, try using a bench scraper around the edges!
