INGREDIENTS

– 3/4 cup (1 1/2 stick) butter, room temperature
– 1-8 ounce package cream cheese, room temperature
– 1/4 cup cocoa powder, sifted
– 2 1/4 cup powdered sugar, sifted
– 1 cup sour cream
– 9 ounces bittersweet chocolate, melted and cooled slightly
– 1/4-1/2 cup toasted and chopped hazelnuts (optional)

 

DIRECTIONS

Beat butter and cream cheese until light and fluffy, making sure to scrape down the sides of the mixing bowl. Add cocoa and powdered sugar. Mix to completely incorporate. Mix in sour cream until no ribbons of cream are seen. With mixer running on low speed, add slightly cooled melted chocolate and mix until completely incorporated. As this frosting chills, it will become hard from the chocolate and butter. Use right away while soft.

I always start with a crumb coat: a thin layer of frosting that seals the cake and allows for some crumbs. To give a layer cake an extra delicious touch, I like to add some toasted and chopped nuts with a half cup of frosting for a filling in between the layers. After applying the crumb coating, chill the cake to harden the frosting and finish the cake with a generous layer of frosting, spread rustically or elegantly. This frosting will satisfy all your cravings.
