How to Make White Chocolate Icing

  1. Melt 12 ounces of white chocolate chips in a double boiler over simmering water, stirring occasionally until completely smooth.
  2. Whisk 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour into the melted chocolate until no lumps remain.
  3. Gradually add 1/2 cup of milk to the chocolate mixture, blending well after each addition until completely smooth and combined.
  4. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, for 5-7 minutes, or until the mixture thickens to the consistency of pudding. It should coat the back of a spoon.
  5. Remove from heat and let the chocolate mixture cool completely.
  6. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) of unsalted butter, 3 cups of powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
  7. Gradually add the cooled chocolate mixture to the butter-sugar mixture, beating on low speed until just combined.
  8. Increase the mixer speed to medium-high and beat for another 2-3 minutes until the icing is light, fluffy, and reaches the desired consistency of whipped cream.
