Chocolate Fudge Frosting

Updated: 25 Apr 2015

Ingredients

  • 340g unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 80g icing sugar
  • Pinch of salt
  • 454g dark chocolate

Method

  1. Melt the chocolate over a bain marie and set to one side to cool.
  2. Beat the butter until fluffy, then add the icing sugar and salt. Beat until well combined.
  3. Reduce mixer speed and add the cooled melted chocolate. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Beat until well combined.
  4. The icing looks very runny at first but is perfect for spreading after about 30 minutes in the fridge. If left in the fridge for longer than that, it will be too stiff to work with.
