Ingredients
- 9 ounces white chocolate
- 12 ounces Philadelphia Cream Cheese
- 6 ounces unsalted butter
- 1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice, freshly squeezed
Instructions
- Place 9 ounces of white chocolate in a batter bowl and microwave on high for 30 seconds. Stir the chocolate, and then microwave for another 30 seconds. Keep stirring and microwaving until all the chocolate is melted, but be careful not to overheat it. Set the melted chocolate aside.
- On a plate, microwave 12 ounces of Philadelphia Cream Cheese on half-power for 1 minute to soften. Set it aside once softened.
- On another plate, microwave 6 ounces of unsalted butter on half power for 30-40 seconds, just until softened.
- In an electric mixer, whip the softened cream cheese for 2 minutes until it is completely fluffed and free of any particles.
- Slowly beat in the melted white chocolate, followed by the softened butter in chunks. Finally, add in 1 1/2 tablespoons of freshly squeezed lemon juice. Beat the mixture until it is light and fluffy, ensuring a smooth consistency.
- Spread the frosting generously on your cake or cupcakes. It also works wonderfully for piping roses, borders, and more.
