" PERFECT" CHOCOLATE FROSTING

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.***.
