Easy, pure white frosting. This fluffy white icing is easy to make at home.
Ingredients
250g (1 block) Copha, at room temperature, sliced
360g (3 cups) icing sugar mixture, sifted
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 tbsp boiling water
Method
Place Copha in a large bowl of an electric mixer. Using the paddle attachment, beat on a low speed until smooth. Increase speed to medium and beat for a further 3-4 minutes, or until white and creamy. Beat in vanilla
Gradually add sugar, 1/3 cup at a time, beating until combined. Add boiling water and beat until smooth
Tips & Hints
To soften Copha, leave it out of the fridge for at least 24 hours. Thinly slice or grate.
Alternatively, run the outside of the mixing bowl under hot water then add sliced Copha and beat. Do not melt Copha.
There is enough frosting to ice a 22-23cm cake or 24 cupcakes.
Frosting is best used immediately after making. Add a little extra boiling water if frosting starts to firm up.
