Cut soft unsalted butter into small pieces. Set aside.
In the small saucepan bring to boil (but do not boil) heavy cream and vanilla paste. Add warm mixture to white chocolate. Let it set for 2-3 minutes. Emulsify with hand blander. Add butter and emulsify again.
Transfer ganache into glass container. Cover with plastic wrap “to contact”. Let ganache set in the refrigerator for 6-8 hours or overnight.
Cream cheese whipped cream will also work for this recipe.
When you are ready to assemble Fraisier macarons, lightly whip ganache with hand mixer. Do not overmix! Transfer ganache into pipping bag with round tip.
Tip from Marina: if you do not have round pipping tip, you can cut pipping bag at the end and fill macarons.
