Categories     Condiment/Spread     Chocolate     Dessert     Quick & Easy

Number Of Ingredients 4

1/2 cup semisweet chocolate pieces
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon lightly colored corn syrup
1/4 vanilla

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan combine all ingredients over low heat, stirring until chocolate melts and mixture is smooth. USE IMMEDIATELY.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The quality of the chocolate you use will greatly impact the taste of your icing. Opt for semisweet chocolate that is at least 60% cacao.
  • Use unsalted butter: This will allow you to control the amount of salt in your icing. If you only have salted butter, be sure to omit the salt in the recipe.
  • Bring the butter and milk to room temperature: This will help them to blend together smoothly. If you don't have time to wait, you can microwave the butter and milk in 10-second intervals, stirring in between, until they are just melted.
  • Don't overbeat the icing: Overbeating can cause the icing to become grainy. Once the ingredients are combined, beat only until smooth.
  • Use the icing immediately: Semisweet chocolate icing is best used immediately after it is made. If you need to store it, place it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Conclusion:

Semisweet chocolate icing is a delicious and versatile frosting that can be used to top cakes, cupcakes, and cookies. It is easy to make and only requires a few simple ingredients. With these tips, you can make perfect semisweet chocolate icing every time.
