This fast, fudge-like frosting is so fantastic. It even makes cakes from a box mix taste like homemade!
Ingredients:
1-2/3 cups confectioners' sugar
3/4 cup heavy whipping cream
4 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
6 tablespoons butter, softened
Directions:
1. In a saucepan, combine confectioners' sugar and cream. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat; stir in chocolate until melted and smooth. Stir in vanilla. Cool until mixture is thickened, about 25 minutes, stirring occasionally.
2. In a bowl, cream butter. Gradually beat in chocolate mixture until blended. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use. Yield: 1-1/2 cups.
