Ingredients

Servings
  • ¼ cup butter unsalted
  • 1 cup milk chocolate morsels
  • ¾ cup sour cream full fat
  • ¼ cup cocoa powder unsweetened
  • pinch kosher salt
  • 3 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. In a microwave safe glass bowl, add butter and chocolate chips to the bowl. Heat for 30 seconds. Stir and heat an additional 30 seconds. Use a whisk or spatula to combine butter and chocolate until smooth. Set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, add sour cream, cocoa powder, kosher salt, and melted chocolate mixture. Beat for one minute until smooth.
  3. Add in powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Beat until fluffy, about 3-5 minutes. Use on cupcakes or layer cake.

Notes

  • Enough frosting for 24 cupcakes or a double layer cake.
  • Use electric beaters or a stand mixer. Incorporating the butter, powdered sugar, chocolate and sour cream is much easier with an electric mixer. You’ll whip the frosting until smooth and combined.
  • Storing: Transfer the frosting to an airtight container in the fridge. Use within 5 days. If too cold to spread, allow to soften at room temperature before using, or beat again until spreadable.
  • For thicker frosting: The recipe as is creates a smooth and creamy frosting, that is too loose to pipe. However, if you beat in more powdered sugar, one spoonful at a time, until it reaches your desired consistency, you can fill a piping bag and use your favorite tip.
  • Serving. Spread this sweet frosting over layer cakes, cupcakes, or between two cookies! Delicious over our rich and fudgy browniestoo!
