Chocolate Sour Cream Frosting C H Sugar Food

CHOCOLATE SOUR CREAM FROSTING

Steps:

• Place the chopped chocolate in a large microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring after every 30 seconds to prevent scorching. Stir until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
• Add the sour cream and vanilla extract to the chocolate, and whisk well. The frosting will be on the thinner side at first, but as it cools, it will thicken nicely.
• Whisk occasionally as it cools to room temperature. Once it has thickened to the texture of buttercream, pipe it on cupcakes or frost your cake. If it becomes too thick to easily spread, reheat it in short bursts in the microwave until you have a workable consistency.
• If you want to make the frosting in advance, press a layer of cling wrap on top, and store it at room temperature for several hours, or in the refrigerator for up to a week. It is very hard when cold, so you'll need to gently reheat it in the microwave, whisking well, and then stir as it comes back to frosting consistency.

SOUR CREAM CHOCOLATE FROSTING

Steps:

• Melt chocolate and the butter together. Let cool and blend in the sour cream, vanilla, and salt. Gradually add the confectioner's sugar until the frosting is of spreading consistency, beat well.

CHOCOLATE SOUR CREAM FROSTING

Steps:

• Melt chocolates in a double boiler or a large metal bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water, stirring occasionally. Remove bowl from heat, then whisk in sour cream and vanilla. Cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally (frosting will become thick enough to spread). You must work quickly and spread the frosting before it becomes too thick. (If icing does become stiff, reheat over simmering water, then cool and try again.)

• Add the eggs, one at a time, continue beating until thick and light.
• Sieve together the cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon and flour.
• With your mixer on low speed add the dry ingredients in 4 portions, alternating with the buttermilk and coffee, beat until all is very well blended.
• Pour the batter in the springform pan and bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a cake tester comes out clean.
• Run a knife around the edge of the cake and let the cake cool completely whilst in the pan.
• Make the frosting just before you need it.
• Mix together the sour cream and the icing sugar, whip the cream until stiff, then mix the two creams together.
• Release the cake and turn it upside down on a platter.
• With a serrated knife cut the cake into layers (I use a piece of sewing thread to cut the cake).
• Spread frosting over one layer, carefully replace the other layer on the top and spread the rest of the frosting over the top and the sides.
• Leave in the fridge until ready to serve.

FROSTED CHOCOLATE SOUR CREAM DROPS

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 350F degrees.
• In a large bowl, cream the butter at high speed for one minute. Add the brown sugar, baking soda and salt and continue to mix until they are well combined. Beat in the egg and vanilla. Now beat in the melted chocolate, then the sour cream.
• Begin to mix in the flour in thirds until well combined and the dough begins to stiffen. You may need to add the last bit by hand using a wooden spoon.
• Chill dough for 30 minutes.
• Place rounded teaspoons of dough on an untreated baking sheet about two inched apart . Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until the edges are firm.
• Remove cookies to a cooling rack to cool. Once cool, spread a small amount of frosting on each cookie (frosting directions appear below). These will keep in a tightly covered container for three days. You can also freeze the cookies before frosting for up to one month.
• To prepare the frosting, place the butter, salt and vanilla in a medium bowl and whip until light and fluffy. Gradually beat in the cocoa and one cup of the powdered sugar. Add in the milk to soften the frosting a bit. Add in the remaining powdered sugar in parts, mixing well until incorporated. If it get too thick for spreading, then add a bit more milk.
