This frosting is wonderful! Easy to make with a nice light flavor that doesn’t overwhelm the cake/cupcakes. My go to chocolate frosting!!

I made this frosting for a layered yellow butter cake. It was a complete hit! I forgot to add the vanilla, but it was still delicious, and even held up pretty well in the heat. Love the buttery flavor, and the fact that it isn’t too sweet.

Delicious! I found and made this recipe because I was out of powdered sugar but now I won’t go back to the old version. This is the perfect complement to cake – rich and delicious, but not too sweet.

I made this using dark chocolate and it is really creamy. When refrigerated it’s almost like a mousse. I will definitely keep this recipe when making cakes.

I am making another cake that I plan to make the night before (it’s a fancy covered-in-fondant cake) and I wanted to know if you thought this frosting would stand up to being left out for 24 hours or not. Thanks!

I used this frosting for a homemade yellow cake and everyone loved it. I mean, they loved it. I have a friend who hates frosting because it’s usually so sickly sweet, and he thought this was great. It was light and fluffy, the taste was out of this world, and it looked so pretty on the cake! Thanks!!

I made this today, and while it tasted fantastic, it was VERY runny. As soon as it came to a boil, I turned the heat to low and stirred for two minutes, but I’m guessing that I should have let it boil for a minute or two to let it thicken up more. I’ll try it again another time.
