Chocolate Frosting

Absolutely delicious. I made a triple chocolate cake and this frosting made it to die for. Thank you!!

I followed the recipe but divided it in half because I only did half the mom chocolate cake recipe as well which made 14 cupcakes (took 15 min to bake) . I know for sure I overwhipped it. It was extremely thick like a chocolate ice cream blizzard lol but so delicious. It was simply difficult to apply to the cupcakes but it was my fault I believe I whipped it for 6 minutes and it changed color from dark brown to a lighter brown by the time I was finished. I am baffled by the watery comments. The thickest Frosting I have ever made or tasted 😝. I will fold in plain whipped cream next time though for personal preferences

Prettiest, best tasting frosting I've ever made.

Hi, not rating it yet as I haven’t tried but it looks like what I’ve been looking for as I am not a fan of super sugary buttercreams, so a blend between a chocolate ganache and buttercream seems perfect. I use 70% chocolate and find that unless recipe specifically calls for it results could be on the super hard side. Could you specify what cocoa content should the chocolate be? Thanks!

Great easy to follow recipe. I did one pan cake so had frosting leftover. Not excited about too much sweet so used a little less sugar for cake and frosting. Mixture was extra watery. But don't be afraid like I was. Cake and frostung turned out great. The children loved it.

less than one star, this recipe sucks DON"T FOLLOW IT!

Delicious and easy to make...texture is perfect making cake look beautiful with little effort

I wish there was a zero star option. This recipe is absolutely disgusting! The icing turns into water when sitting out. The fridge will not even stop it from turning into a liquid. It has to be in the freezer constantly, yum frozen solid cake!

Tasted good but would absolutely not whip up. Gave up after 30 mins of beating and just ate floppy runny frosting.

Want to know how to confuse a cook? Use three different measurements when asking for butter (stick, ounces, tablespoons). Delicious recipe, though!

Totally different than any frosting I’ve made before. It was absolutely delicious. Now... I read a few reviews/comments and was baffled by two that I saw. One said how much water? And the other said where is the flour? What the H! Folks, if you read the recipe and follow it to the letter and maybe set yourself a 5 minute timer, you will see it begins to come together by the end of the five minutes. Then just continue to beat (I used beaters) until it comes to the consistency you are looking for. I did add some expresso granules to the cream and sugar mixture. This was super easy and tasty, not too sweet. Just follow the recipe, it’s not rocket science.

This is the BEST light and fluffy frosting, and it will be my new go-to recipe! It’s a whipped cream type of frosting, so it’s texture is light, but sturdy enough for piping, and it tastes a bit like mousse that isn’t super sweet. Like another older reviewer said, I started wondering if it would thicken properly in the ice bowl. Once I got it to the consistency of a thick pudding that I thought wouldn’t work, I removed the bowl from the ice and, voila, like magic, the consistency suddenly changed! It’s a perfect and beautiful frosting! (Now I need to practice my decorating skills!)

is it possible to have the recipe in UK measurements please?

This frosting is INSANELY good and easy. Not too sweet, but with a very intense chocolate flavor thanks to the use of unsweetened baking chocolate (NOT cocoa powder). I have never liked any other chocolate frosting recipe I have tried, and I have never seen a technique like this one which is what led me to try it. I thought I did something wrong when it felt like no matter how long I beat it it wouldn't thicken to the "right" consistency, but after letting it sit for about 10-15 minutes, it became perfect icing consistency.I made this for a cake last night, and 24 hours later the icing still looks (and tastes) perfect. This would taste divine with some espresso, hazelnuts, orange....the possibilities are endless. Thank you thank you!!!!

How much water I’m confused

I loved this frosting!! It's perfect. It takes patience to get it the perfect consistency but it was fantastic!! The cooler it gets, the thicker it becomes. Highly recommend it!! :) :) :)

This is, by far, the best chocolate frosting recipe ever. It's not sugary sweet and has a deep rich chocolate flavor . Oddly enough, I was out of white sugar, and used unpacked brown sugar, and it was still delish

This is an awesome recipe. Everybody at place loved it so much. Thankyou. Will like to read more from your treasures.

And where is the flour? I think you forgot a key ingredient here???!!!!
