Betty demonstrates how to make Chocolate Cream Cheese Frosting for topping the Rich Chocolate Cupcakes, a recent recipe in Bettys Kitchen. This frosting is a standard cream cheese frosting with cocoa powder added.
Cream cheese | 4 Ounce , softened | |
Butter | 1/4 Cup (4 tbs) , softened | |
Vanilla extract | 1/2 Teaspoon | |
Confectioner’s sugar | 8 Ounce | |
Cocoa powder | 1/4 Cup (4 tbs) |
Making
Place 4 ounces softened cream cheese, ¼ cup softened butter, and ½ teaspoon vanilla in a large mixing bowl and beat with an electric mixer at medium speed until creamy.
Add 8 ounces confectioner's sugar and beat at medium speed until smooth and spreadable.
At this point, save a small amount of frosting in a small bowl if you plan to add food coloring and decorate the top of your dessert.
Spread frosting on cooled cake, cupcakes, or cookies.
Note:This frosting will be used on the Rich Chocolate Cupcakes in Betty’s Kitchen.
