Chocolate Syrup Frosting Food

GRANDMA'S CHOCOLATE SYRUP BROWNIES

Steps:

• For the Brownies:.
• Cream butter and sugar.
• Add eggs and chocolate syrup. Mix until well blended.
• Add flour and mix well.
• Add nuts.
• Bake in a 9 x 13-inch cake pan for 30 minutes at 350 degrees.
• For the Frosting:
• Boil sugar, margarine, and milk for 1 minute.
• Remove from heat and add l/2 cup chocolate chips.
• Stir until thick, then quickly spread over brownies (when brownies are cool). This frosting thickens quickly.

DOUBLE CHOCOLATE CUPCAKES WITH SALTED CHIA PUDDING FROSTING

Steps:

• Make the frosting:
• Combine the coconut milk, dates, and salt in a blender and blend until the mixture is smooth. This might take a few minutes. If end up with small bits of dates, that's OK. But you don't want to see chunks or even white slivers of the coconut milk. The color should be a very light tan. Taste, and if you want to add more salt, do it now and then blend for a few more seconds (I really like the saltiness a teaspoon brings). Pour the mixture into a medium jar or container with a lid. Stir in the chia seeds. Put the frosting in the fridge, covered, for at least 6 hours (overnight is best).
• For the cupcakes:
• Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Line a standard cupcake pan with 12 paper liners.
• In a small bowl, combine the almond milk and apple cider vinegar. In another small bowl, make a flax egg: Mix the flax meal and water together. Let both the almond milk mixture and the flax egg rest for at least 10 minutes.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flours, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
• Combine the vanilla, maple syrup, flax egg, and almond milk mixture in a bowl. Add the wet ingredients into the dry and stir to combine. Do not overstir. Pour in the coconut oil and chocolate chips and give it a few more stirs, until just combined.
• Fill each cupcake liner with 1/4 cup of the batter. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until a fork or toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
• Let your cupcakes cool on a wire rack if you have one. When they're completely cool, top them with the frosting. Sprinkle a few more chocolate chips on top.

CHOCOLATE CUPCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F and set two oven racks in the centermost positions. Line two 12-cup muffin tins with paper liners.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Mix on low speed for 30 seconds to combine. Add the eggs, oil, sour cream, and vanilla and mix on low speed until combined.
• Increase the speed to medium and beat for 2 minutes. Then, reduce the speed to low and gradually pour in the hot water (be careful to pour very slowly so it doesn't splash). The batter will be soupy. Stop the mixer and scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl; mix again until evenly combined.
• Pour the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tins (they should be about halfway full). Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the cupcakes are set and a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean.
• Cool the cupcakes in the pans for about 10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Place the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and cook in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until about three-quarters of the way melted. Stir, allowing the residual heat in the bowl to melt the remaining chocolate completely. (If necessary, place the chocolate back in microwave for a few seconds.) Set aside to cool.
• In a food processor, process the butter, sugar, cocoa powder and salt until smooth, about 30 seconds, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Add the corn syrup and vanilla and process until just combined, 5 to 10 seconds. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, then add the lukewarm chocolate and pulse until smooth and creamy, 10 to 15 seconds. Do not overmix. The frosting can be used immediately or held at room temperature for up to 3 hours.
• When the cupcakes are completely cool, use a small offset spatula or butter knife to swirl the frosting lavishly over top. The cupcakes are best enjoyed fresh on the day they are made, but they will keep for two days stored in an airtight container at room temperature.
• Note: If making this cake for children, I recommend using milk chocolate for the frosting (Hershey or Lindt milk chocolate bars work well). Semi-sweet chocolate will lend a more intense chocolate flavor (Ghirardelli bars for baking are ideal).

CREAMY CHOCOLATE SYRUP FROSTING

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl using an electric mixer on low speed beat the butter, sifted cocoa powder and chocolate syrup until just combined.
• Add in the sifted confectioners sugar, whipping cream and vanilla; beat on low speed until the confectioners sugar is combined; increase the speed to medium and beat for 1 more minute until smooth and spreadable (add in more whipping cream or sugar if needed to achieve desired consistency).

CHOCOLATE SOUR CREAM FROSTING

Steps:

• In a saucepan, combine the sugar and chocolate syrup. When well mixed, stir in the sour cream. Cook over medium heat to the soft ball stage (234 degrees F, 112 degrees C on candy thermometer).
• Remove from the heat. blend in vanilla and beat until thick enough to spread.

CHOCOLATE SYRUP FROSTING

Steps:

• 1. Place the butter, cocoa powder, and chocolate syrup in a large mixing bowl. Blend with an electric mixer on low speed until just combined, 30 seconds.
• 2. Stop the mixer and add confectioners sugar, milk, and vanilla. Blend with the mixer on low speed until the sugar is incorporated, 1 minute.
• 3. Increase the speed to medium and beat until fluffy, 1 minute more.

CHOCOLATE POKE CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F and spray a 9x13-inch pan with cooking spray; set aside.
• To a large mixing bowl, add all the ingredients and mix with a handheld electric mixer or stir by hand. Note that the batter will be thick*.
• Bake for about 28-32 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 30 minutes.
• Using the tines of a fork, poke holes all over the cake, going down nearly do the base of the cake, and I estimate I poked the cake in about 50 different places.
• To a medium bowl, add both ingredients, and whisk to combine.
• Evenly pour the filling mixture over the cake, noting that it may take a few minutes for all of the mixture to soak in, but it will so have patience.
• To a large mixing bowl, add all the ingredients and beat with the whisk attachment of a handheld electric mixer or do it in your stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment.
• Evenly spread the frosting over the top of the cake, cover, and refrigerate** until serving.

CAN O' HERSHEY'S BROWNIES

Steps:

• Instructions Cream butter and sugar. Beat in eggs, one at a time. (Beat each well.) Beat in chocolate syrup. (Add optional extra chocolate blended with veg. oil, if using.) Add flour. Then nuts (if using.) Spread mixture into a greased and floured rimmed cookie sheet. Bake at 350 for 20 to 25 minutes. Cool on a rack. While brownies are cooling, make frosting. In a small, heavy bottomed saucepan, melt butter. Add milk and sugar and whisk well. Heat to a full, rolling boil, whisking constantly. Remove from heat. Stir in 1/2 cup chocolate chips until melted. Pour all into a stand mixer with the whisk attachment. Beat on high speed until frosting thickens and begins to hold shape. Spread over brownies. When frosting is set, cut into bars.
