2-INGREDIENT PUMPKIN FROSTING



2-Ingredient Pumpkin Frosting image

This frosting is one of those brilliant, silly-simple recipes you'd never know was made with just two ingredients: canned pumpkin puree and chopped up chocolate. You start by cooking the pumpkin to concentrate its flavor and thicken it, then simply stir in the chocolate until it melts. The sweet and tangy results are the perfect complement to cake, and the creamy consistency spreads easily into gorgeous swoops.
