on Old Recipe Detective Blog: Try this frosting on your cupcakes, bundt cakes or
use to frost a layer cake. The frosting is an old-fashion boiled frosting that
all the chocolate lover's you know will adore.
Instructions:
Combine sugar, eggs and heavy cream. Add chocolate (can be melted in microwave
60 seconds or so). Bring to boil at medium heat. Cover and boil on medium-low
heat 2-3 minutes until steam washes any sugar crystals down from the sides,
continue to soft ball stage. Cool a bit (no more than 5 minutes) and add butter
and vanilla. Beat to proper thickness and spread on cake.
