Fudgy Chocolate Frosting.

6.22.2009

Here's the recipe I used for frosting the cupcakes I made for the our work for the 48 Hour Film Project. It's a tasty frosting, but very gooey and sticky. Consider yourself warned.

  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup baking cocoa
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 2 tablespoons light corn syrup
  • dash of salt
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

Mix all of the above ingredients over low heat until combined. Then heat to boiling, stirring frequently. Boil for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, and then cool for 30 minutes.

This recipe is originally from Betty Crocker's Big Red Cookbook. Betty and company are kind enough to provide nutritional information:
