Burnt Honey & Ginger Cream Frosting
 
Makes 2 cups
Ingredients
  • ¼ cup (85 grams) light corn syrup
  • 3 tablespoons (63 grams) honey
  • 1 (8-ounce) package (225 grams) cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup (112 grams) mascarpone cheese
  • 1 tablespoon (6 grams) grated fresh ginger
  • 1 cup (120 grams) confectioners’ sugar
Instructions
  1. In a small saucepan, bring corn syrup and honey to a boil over medium heat. Cook, stirring with a rubber spatula, until honey is fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a glass measuring cup, and let cool slightly.
  2. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat cream cheese and mascarpone at medium speed until creamy. Increase mixer speed to medium-high. Add honey mixture in a slow, steady stream, beating just until combined. Scrape sides of bowl, and beat in ginger. Reduce mixer speed to low. Gradually add confectioners’ sugar, beating until fluffy. Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
