Has anyone tried the Baked NYC style frosting?

I just made my first batch of Baked NYC's white frosting - I have to say, it's the best, easiest frosting I've ever made. They use an almost pudding-like method of making theirs similar to how you make twinkie filling at home. Basically, it's a mixture of milk, sugar, whipping cream, and flour that boils and is then whipped until cool in the mixer. After that, you add soft, but cool butter to the mixture and whip until light and fluffy.

I replaced half the sugar in mine with white chocolate powder to make a white chocolate style frosting. I didn't have white chocolate which is used in the recipe I was making, so I used powder and it worked beautifully.

Here is the ratio:

Whisk together in a saucepan-
1.5C sugar (or half sugar, half white chocolate powder)
1/3C flour

Add in 1.5C milk
1/3C heavy cream

Cook over medium heat until it comes to a boil and thickens.

Beat mixture with a mixture on high until cool.

Reduce speed to low and add in 3 sticks (1.5C) soft (but still cool) butter, 1 stick at a time. Add in 2t. vanilla and beat on high until light and fluffy. It might look as if it's going to break, but will quickly come together into a smooth frosting.

In their recipe, they add in 6oz. melted, cooled white chocolate to the mixture before the butter. But the above recipe is my version which is probably not quite as sweet. Next time, I'll definitely try theirs.

Enjoy - I know I will!
