Macinaw Island Chocolate
Fudge Buttercream Icing
(Why do I call it that? Because that is what the taste
reminds me of – chocolate fudge!) It is the best chocolate frosting!
Ingredients
•1 cup salted butter
•scant ½ cup of
unsweetened cocoa (Slightly less than ½ cup)
•3 one ounce squares of melted then cooled semi-sweet or
milk chocolate
•½ tsp instant coffee
•1-2 tbsp heavy cream
•3 cups powdered sugar
Instructions
Melt your three chocolate squares in the microwave,
slowly and carefully until they are liquidy smooth. Set aside to cool.
Whip the butter in your mixer until it’s light and
fluffy.
Add in the cocoa, beating until combined.
When the chocolate is cool, add it to the butter. Make
sure it’s cooled!!
Add the instant coffee to one tablespoon of cream, then
add to the butter mixture.
Now you can put in the icing sugar one cup at a time,
beating until combined.
Adjust the thickness/texture by using another tablespoon
of cream, adding it slowly until the texture you want is achieved.
