Chocolate Frosting:

Chocolate frosting takes a longer time and more effort than simple chocolate icing. But the results are well worth it. It is light, fluffy and decadent! One can use an electric mixer for best results, but you can also use a wooden spoon and effort of your hands.

Ingredients:

  • Butter-120 gm
  • Icing sugar- 2 and a half cups
  • Cocoa-1/2 cup
  • Milk-1/3 cup
  • Vanilla essence-1 tsp

Chocolate Cream Cake Topping:

This is a delicious spread that adds creamy texture to any cake.

Ingredients:

  • After chocolate has melted, take away from heat and mix in the cream.
