Yield Makes about 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
2 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 cups powdered sugar
2/3 cup (about) sour cream

Steps:

  • Melt unsalted butter and chocolate in heavy small saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth. Transfer to large bowl. Whisk in cocoa powder and vanilla. Whisk in 1 cup sugar and 1/3 cup sour cream. Whisk in remaining 1 cup sugar. Gradually whisk in enough of remaining sour cream to form spreadable frosting.

Tips:

  • Soften the butter and cream cheese to room temperature: This will make them easier to mix and will result in a smoother frosting.
  • Use high-quality chocolate: The better the chocolate, the better the frosting will taste. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 60%.
  • Add a little salt to the frosting: This will help to balance out the sweetness and make the frosting more complex.
  • Chill the frosting before using: This will help it to set and make it easier to spread.
  • If the frosting is too thick, add a little milk or cream: This will help to thin it out.
  • If the frosting is too thin, add a little more powdered sugar: This will help to thicken it.
  • Use the frosting within a few days: Freshly made chocolate sour cream frosting is best.

Conclusion:
