Yield Makes 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 pound good-quality bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
1/4 cup corn syrup
2 1/3 cups heavy cream

Steps:

  • Combine chocolate and corn syrup in a large heatproof bowl. Bring cream just to a simmer over medium-high heat; pour over chocolate mixture. Let stand, without stirring, until chocolate begins to melt.
  • Beginning near the center and working outward, whisk melted chocolate into cream until mixture is combined and smooth. Continue to whisk until frosting just barely begins to hold its shape and is slightly lighter in color. Use immediately (frosting will continue to thicken after whisking).

I followed the recipe exactly but my frosting turned out grainy. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This frosting was a bit too runny for my taste. I had to add more powdered sugar to get it to the right consistency.

I was disappointed with this frosting. It was too sweet for my taste and it didn't have a very rich chocolate flavor.

I'm not a big fan of chocolate frosting, but this one is an exception. It's so light and fluffy, and it doesn't overpower the cake.
