Fudge Frosting
This is a rich non-greasy frosting that goes on hot and stiffens as it cools.
15 min
Ingredients
- 5 cups (625 g / 1.38 lb) powdered sugar
- 3 oz (85 g) unsweetened baking chocolate
- 2 tablespoons margarine
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon corn syrup
Steps
- Melt the chocolate and margarine together in a double-boiler or, carefully, in a saucepan on low heat.
- Mix in the vanilla extract and corn syrup, keeping the mixture somewhat hot.
- Mix in the sugar, still keeping the mixture somewhat hot. You might not use the exact amount listed. Just keep adding sugar until the frosting is as thick as desired.
- While still hot, spread the mixture on cake or brownies. Mixture will stiffen.
