Frosting for my butter pecan cake?thanks!maybe with cream cheese,know any recipes?!


Question: I would go with this White Chocolate Cream Cheese Frosting

2 (8 oz) pkg Cream Cheese
14 oz bag of White chocolate Candy Melts
2 Tablespoons Lemon Juice
1 cup unsalted butter

Melt the candy melts as directed on pkg. Set aside to cool(but don't let it harden)..cream the cream cheese with a mixer, add in the meltd candy melts....once combined add in the butter and lemon juice. fridgerate for a half hour and then frost onto cake.

*its important to use Candy melts(i use Wilton) and not regular white chocolate ...regular white chocolate will make the frosting a thin (runny) consistancy... Candy melts can be found in the 'craft' baking section at wal-marts and targets. Or at Joanns and Micheals or at a cake/candy specialty shop

I dont have a recipe for it, and have googled it and still dont see it..
It was like a brown sugar, caramel frosting with bits of crunch in it.. I had forgotten about those cakes until you posted that question.

small can or 1/2 cup evaporated milk
2 egg yolks
1 1/2 cups sugar

blend the above in sauce pan and heat over medium heat to boiling. Stirring constantly til it reaches point of coating the spoon.
