FUDGE FROSTING



Fudge Frosting image

This frosting uses flour to thicken it and keep it together, rather than the cooked protein structure of egg whites (Classic Butter Cream and 7 Minute Frosting), or the strong bond between butter and air (Classic Butter Cream and Quick Vanilla Butter Cream). After making all four frosting recipes, we've done most types except a Swiss Buttercream which is similar to a 7 minute, where you heat the egg whites with sugar, but for not as long and then you add creamed butter to it. There are also ganache frostings which start with melted chocolate and blend liquids into it like cream, corn syrup, vanilla, etc., and are never whipped, to make a shiny more dense chocolate frosting. There's also cream cheese frostings where you beat the cream cheese until very fluffy and add ingredients for sweetness and flavor.

EASIEST BEST FUDGE FROSTING



Easiest Best Fudge Frosting image

I found this recipe years ago, and it got rave reviews, but I lost it and have looked for it ever since. Only 3 ingredients, VERY simple, and it generously frosts a 13 X 9 pan of brownies or Cake. Works best when slightly warm. I usually use it on brownies, (but usually have a little left for on top of ice cream)....Feel free to experiment....You can use semi sweet, dark, or milk chocolate, and you can garnish the top with nuts etc, but move quickly before it sets up all the way and your garnish won't "stick". Onr try and you will be hooked on the simplicity and the great flavor!

1 3/4 cups (3 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for pans
3/4 cup Dutch-process cocoa powder, sifted, plus more for pans
3/4 cup hot water
3/4 cup sour cream

Chocolate Ganache Frosting for Fudgy Devil's Food Cake

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter two 9-by-2-inch round cake pans; line bottoms with parchment paper rounds. Butter parchment; dust with cocoa powder, tapping out excess.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together cocoa and hot water until smooth. Whisk in sour cream; let cool, then whisk in chocolate. Into a medium bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, and salt.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes.
