So a while back I made this 2 Ingredient Easy Chocolate Buttercream frosting. And everyone loved it and couldn’t believe how magic-y it is etc etc. But then I got a few people that were like, “no way does that actually work”. Like I am a frosting fraud or something. Now, I may fib to you about how many cookies I eat a day (always more) or how many sit ups I do (always less), but I will never tell a frosting untruth. It’s basically the North on my moral compass. This frosting has 2 ingredients. Just 2. Butter and white chocolate. It was the same with the chocolate version . I don’t know how it works, but it just does people. But here’s the deal, it’s different than a traditional buttercream frosting, a little less sweet, and more silky. It’s pretty special! The reason for today’s post, though.. is that I got a TON of inquiries on whether or not that method would work with white chocolate, or butterscotch, or even cinnamon chips. I am here because I did the experiment for you! Yes. Yessssss. Yessssssssssss. Totally works, y’all. If you like white chocolate, you need to stop whatever you are doing and make this. I am going to warn you for sure, this is a leeetle different than you’re average frosting. It’s super rich, but also totally light and fluffy. More like a Swiss Meringue Buttercream than anything else. But way easier. And more fun. 2 Ingredient White Chocolate Buttercream Here are the ridiculously simple steps… You’ll need 2 cups of white chocolate and 1 pound of butter. I know, it’s a lot. Melt your butter and white chocolate in a saucepan over low heat… The white chocolate and butter will separate and look all-together unappetizing. It’s part of the process. Chill that for a while. I stuck mine in the fridge overnight. When it’s solid you can take it out of the fridge… Let it sit out for a little bit, just to take the chill off, and come out of the saucepan easier. Then plop it in your mixing bowl and whip it up… After 2-3 minutes of beating the heck out of it, it will be super fluffy… And perfectly pipe-able. Is that a word?
