Time 50m

Yield 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

12 ounces white chocolate, chopped or 12 ounces white chocolate chips
1 tablespoon corn syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pinch salt
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
4 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

Steps:

  • Place chocolate, corn syrup, vanilla, and salt in food processor.
  • In small saucepan, bring cream to boil.
  • With machine running, add hot cream in steady stream and blend until chocolate melts, about 1 minute.
  • Stop food processor and add confectioners' sugar, processing until sugar is incorporated, about 30 seconds. While machine is running, add butter, a piece at a time, and process until completely smooth, about 1 minute.
  • Place frosting in medium bowl and refrigerate, stirring frequently, until cooled and very thick, at least 30 minutes. You'll know it's ready when a spoon can stand up in it.
  • TIP: This frosting produces a silky, creamy consistency. For a fluffier frosting, beat the cooled frosting with an electric mixer at medium speed for about 2 minutes.
