How to Make White Chocolate Buttercream
- Beat 1 cup (2 sticks) of unsalted butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed for 3 minutes, until light and fluffy.
- Gradually add 1/2 cup of whole milk, beating on low speed until fully incorporated and smooth. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Gently pour in 12 ounces of melted high-quality white chocolate (ensure it's cooled slightly to avoid curdling) and beat on medium speed for 2 minutes, until fully combined.
- Add 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract and beat for another 3 minutes, until light and airy.
- Gradually add 4 cups of powdered sugar, one cup at a time, beating on low speed until the buttercream reaches your desired consistency. Start with 3 cups and add more as needed to reach your desired thickness. Taste and adjust sweetness as needed.
