Cookbook:Chocolate Sour-Cream Icing

| Dessert

Chocolate sour-cream icing is an icing or frosting with a bit of tang to take the edge off the sugar overload. It can be icing or frosting depending on what you want.

Ingredients

 * 1 cup (240 g) chocolate chips
 * ¼ cup (60 g) butter
 * ½ cup (120 g) sour cream
 * 1 tsp vanilla extract
 * ¼ tsp salt
 * 1–3 cup (240–700 g) icing sugar

Procedure

 * 1) Melt the chocolate and butter together in a double boiler.
 * 2) Remove mixture from the heat, then stir in the sour cream, vanilla extract, and salt.
 * 3) Slowly beat or stir in the icing sugar until the mixture has the desired consistency. An icing will be thinner and require less icing sugar than a thicker frosting.
 * 4) Spread mixture on the cake of your choice.
