chocolate fudge frosting

My chocolate fudge frosting makes enough to frost one of the following cake sizes: a two-layer 8&quot; or 9&quot; cake, a one-layer 9x13&quot; cake, 12 cupcakes (generously frosted as seen in photos), or 24 cupcakes (modestly).Recipe also includes a how to video!

Chocolate Fudge Frosting

oz unsweetened chocolate (coarsely chopped)

unsalted butter ((75 grams))

milk ((118 milliliters))

salt

sugar

vanilla extract

Combine chopped chocolate, butter, milk, and salt in a saucepan over low-heat.

Stir frequently until chocolate and butter are completely melted and mixture is smooth.

Remove chocolate mixture from the heat and pour into a large bowl. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract and whisk until icing is glossy and smooth.

Allow the frosting to cool, stirring occasionally, until it is thick enough to spread or pipe over cake/cupcakes (how long this takes will vary greatly depending on many factors including how hot the chocolate mixture became, the temperature of your kitchen, etc.). The more you whisk the mixture the faster it will cool.

Chocolate Slab Cake with Chocolate Fudge Frosting - Imagine a large, rectangular slab of super moist chocolate cake, all covered in a smooth and velvety Chocolate Fudge Frosting.

Chocolate Slab Cake with Chocolate Fudge Frosting

all-purpose flour

white sugar

brown sugar

instant coffee granules

2¼ tsp baking soda

½ tsp baking powder

milk

vegetable oil (or light olive oil)

tsp vanilla extract

eggs (large)

water (hot)

chocolate

butter

g sugar

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9 x 13 pan with parchment paper.

In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt using a mesh strainer. Sifting helps to ensure that the dry ingredients are well combined and free of lumps.

Add brown sugar, white sugar and coffee granules to dry ingredients. Use a hand whisk to thoroughly combine all of the dry ingredients. This helps to evenly distribute the leavening agents and sugar, ensuring a uniform texture in your cake.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and eggs. Ensure that the wet ingredients are well combined.

Create a well in the centre of the dry ingredients. Pour the wet ingredients into the well. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. 

Gradually add the hot water to the batter, stirring continuously. The batter will be thin, but this is normal. The hot water helps to bloom the cocoa and create a moist cake.

Continue to mix the batter until it becomes smooth. The consistency should be thin but well-mixed.

Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pan. Tap the pan on the counter to release any air bubbles.

Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean.

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 20 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Once the cakes are completely cool, you can frost them with your favorite frosting or serve them as-is.

Chocolate Cake

In a medium-sized pan over medium heat, combine the chopped chocolate, unsalted butter, powdered sugar (if using), vanilla, instant coffee granules (if using), cream and a pinch of salt.

Stir the ingredients continuously with a wooden spoon or silicone spatula until the chocolate and butter are completely melted and the mixture is smooth. The sugar, if used, should dissolve into the mixture. 

Mix until the mixture is well combined and has a glossy texture.

Once the mixture is smooth and well combined, remove the pan from the heat.

Transfer the frosting to a mixing bowl. Let it come to room temperature then refrigerate and allow it to chill until it reaches a spreadable yet thick consistency.

Once the frosting has reached the desired consistency, spread it generously over the cooled chocolate cake with an angled spatula.

If desired, you can decorate the frosted cake with additional chocolate shavings, sprinkles, or other decorations of your choice.

Chocolate Fudge Frosting - No Powdered Sugar

vanilla

Add butter, sugar, cocoa powder and chocolate to a saucepan over medium heat. Cook until it begins to bubble around the edges but does not boil, about 3-4 minutes.

Gradually add the cream, whisking until it is incorporated, Add vanilla. Cool at least 2 hours until it has thickened before frosting a cake or cupcakes.

Ultra-rich and silky smooth, this dark chocolate fudge frosting is simple to make with 6 ingredients and no powdered sugar. It&#39;s the best fudge frosting for topping cupcakes, cakes, fudge brownies, and more!

unsweetened cocoa powder

fine sea salt

+ 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream

vanilla bean paste

Note that this recipe must set overnight or a minimum of 4-6 hours before using!

Sift the cocoa powder. Sift the cocoa powder into a stand mixing bowl fitted with the paddle attachment, or into a large bowl with a hand mixer.

Warm the cream and sugar. In a pot over medium heat, melt the butter and salt together. When melted, add in the heavy cream and sugar, whisking occasionally until nearly boiling; about 7-10 minutes.

Melt the chocolate chips. Reduce the heat to low and stir in the chocolate chips until completely melted, about 7-8 minutes.

Combine the hot chocolate mixture and cocoa. Stream the hot chocolate mixture into the bowl with the sifted cocoa powder. Mix until combined, then scrape down the bowl. Increase the speed to medium and mix for 2-3 minutes until lump-free. Then stir in the vanilla.

Pour into a container. Pour the fudge frosting into an airtight container. Leave the lid off while the frosting is still warm so it doesn&#39;t condensate in the container. Once room temperature, cover and chill in the fridge for a minimum of 4-6 hours, or overnight before using. You can also let it set at room temperature overnight.

Mix before using. If it was chilled overnight, let it sit at room temperature for 30-60 minutes to soften. Paddle-mix the frosting for 20-30 seconds to loosen it for piping or frosting. Avoid overmixing or the frosting will become difficult to work with and will significantly lighten in color.

Storage: Keep any frosting in the fridge for up to 1 month. It is room temperature stable for 1-2 weeks.

It has a really nice texture, but I think it wasn’t sweet enough for our preferences.  Definitely tastes more like a ganache; not something I would’ve covered and filled a whole cake with.  I’ll play around with it.  I used a kitchen scale for measurements.  It was easy to follow.

My daughter and I have been testing fudge frosting recipes. This is our favorite so far. Her only criticism was the frosting was just a bit grainy. Is that because of the cocoa powder, or might it be user error?

This is so silky and delicious! We all loved it!

Love this frosting so delicious and chocolatly
