super easy frosting

175g white chocolate, chopped into small pieces
1 tbsp of lime zest
1 tbsp of lime juice
75g unsalted butter
115g icing sugar
90ml heavy cream

Put all the ingredients into a heavy based saucepan over a very low heat.
Stir the mixture with a wooden spoon until all the ingredients have melted and blended into a smooth mixture. 

This frosting tends to be a bit too soft to make any nice deco but it's just perfect if you want to spred it on an even space.
I've also altered this recipe to make frosting for a cinnamon- chokolate cake. I replaced the white chokolate with dark, left out the lime, added some seeds of vanilla and freshly graded cinnamon.
