A tasty icing for a chocolate cake such as Sue B's Chocolate Cake #31804, or Kittencal's Orange Snack Cake #116990, or my Blender Orange Cake #147447. Enough to frost a two-layer cake. To make an orange cake, use a white cake mix, use orange juice instead of the water called for in the package directions, and add some orange zest. Sprinkle top of iced cake with additional orange zest, or chocolate shavings, chocolate sprinkles, or chocolate drizzle. Ingredients:
1/3 cup butter, softened |
1 1/2 tablespoons orange zest |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
3 1/2 cups icing sugar, sifted |
1 tablespoon orange juice (or more) |
1 teaspoon lemon juice |
Directions:
1. Cream the butter.
2. Add grated orange zest and salt.
3. Add icing sugar alternately with orange juice and lemon juice. You can put the sifter right over the bowl while adding the icing sugar.
4. Beat well after each addition.
5. Add a little more orange juice if required.
6. Beat until creamy and easy to spread.
