Categories     Dessert

Time 20m

Yield 1 2-3 layer cake, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup half-and-half
1 cup butter, cut into tablespoons (2 sticks)
2 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted

Steps:

  • Place a large mixing bowl full of ice in the kitchen sink.
  • Place the chocolate chips, half and half, and butter in a medium-size saucepan over medium heat.
  • Stir the mixture constantly until the chips and butter melt and the mixture thickens, 5 to 6 minutes. Do not let it boil.
  • Remove the pan from the heat.
  • Whisk the confectioners' sugar into the mixture until it becomes smooth.
  • Then, place the saucepan in the bowl of ice, taking special care not to let any of the ice water spill into the saucepan.
  • Beat the mixture with an electric mixer set on low speed until the frosting thickens and is satiny and fudgelike in appearance, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Spread onto the cake of your choice. The frosting will stiffen up as it sets. If it gets too hard to spread, simply place the saucepan back over low heat and stir until it reaches spreading consistency.

" PERFECT" CHOCOLATE FROSTING



This is now one of my favorite chocolate frostings. I got it from "The Chocolate Cake Mix Doctor" by anne byrn. I have made a few changes to the recipe. Actually, I didn't have the 1 cup of semisweet chocolate chips that the original recipe called for. Lennie came to the rescue (thanks!) by figuring out the appropriate amount of semisweet squares to use, which I did have on hand. Now I always make it with the squares instead of the chips. This frosting is very thick, creamy, and fudgy. I usually bake two 9-inch layers, cut them into four layers, and slather this frosting on each and every layer and all over the top and sides--because I like a little cake with my frosting :) Another thanks goes out to leeannr for making me post this recipe. Now she loves it as much as I do.

Time 15m

Yield 1 cake

Number Of Ingredients 4

6 ounces semisweet chocolate (I use 6 squares baker's semisweet chocolate)
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 cup butter, cut into tablespoon sizes
2 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted

Steps:

  • Place a large bowl, filled halfway with ice, in the sink (a bowl that is large enough to hold the pot that you will cook the frosting in).
  • In a medium size pot over medium low heat, melt chocolate, cream, and butter.
  • Stirring constantly, cook the mixture until all of the butter and chocolate melts and thickens.
  • Cook for 5-6 minutes.
  • DO NOT LET BOIL.
  • Remove pot from heat.
  • Whisk in the sifted confectioners' sugar until mixture becomes smooth (approximately 1 minute), then put the pot on top of the bowl of ice (be careful to not allow any ice from the larger bowl to get into pot with the chocolate mixture).
  • Beat with an electric mixer on low speed for 4-5 minutes until frosting becomes smooth, thick, and fudgy.
  • Remove from ice.
  • Spread onto cooled cake layers.
  • The frosting will thicken as it sets up.
  • If the frosting gets too hard to spread, put back on LOW heat and stir constantly until you get the spreading consistency desired.
  • ***I have been adding 1 Tbs. of light corn syrup to the initial heavy cream and chocolate mixture to add more glossiness to the frosting.***.
