EASY Chocolate Frosting

This recipe is going to blow your mind!  It's a TWO INGREDIENT frosting.  Yes, you read right. TWO INGREDIENTS!!  Everyone always loves it!  The full recipe can be found here.  I will take you through a step by step tutorial.  All you need is:

• 2 cups of chocolate chips
• 1 lb of butter

They also have a white chocolate buttercream recipe, which is one of the other frostings I used on my ninja turtle cake.  I will also show you the photos for that one.  Its the same process, except with white chocolate chips ;)

Finally, before I get to the tutorial,  I had a coworker who also uses this recipe, but hers was even better.  She let me know it was that she used 3 different types of chocolate chips (milk chocolate, semi-sweet chocolate, and dark chocolate).  I will try this next time!

CHOCOLATE FROSTING TIME

(and WHITE CHOCOLATE)

Milk chocolate - melt the butter and chocolate chips completely liquefy.

White chocolate - do the same thing.  Melt the butter and chocolate completely.  You will notice that the butter and white chocolate will separate a little more noticeable thank the chocolate one.  It's ok, no worries.

Put both pots/saucepans into the refrigerator over night.  I didn't get the chance to take a picture of what it looks like when it comes out of the fridge.  The recipe link, however, does a really good job a showing this.  You are then going to set it out and let it come to room temperature (at least 30 min) before spooning it into your mixing bowl and whipping it until it is the consistency you want.  Some times (if the chocolate doesn't melt all the way) you will have chocolate chip chunks in your frosting, which I heard is really good.  Below are the finished products.
