1cupsemi-sweet chocolatechopped into small pieces
1/2cupwhipping cream or heavy cream
1/4cuphoney (optional for a sweeter frosting)
6tablespoonssour cream
Instructions
Place chocolate, whipping cream and honey in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir with a silicone spatula (or similar) until the chocolate is melted and then remove from heat.
Transfer to a large bowl and whisk in the sour cream. Let it stand for 30 minutes to cool and thicken. If it still not thick enough at this point, you can place it in the fridge for a bit to speed up the process.
Once it has thickened, beat with a hand mixer until it is fluffy and it has lightened in colour. It is ready to use to frost your cake!
