I started this blog so my daughters could find all of our family favourite recipes in one place. It has actually grown into more than just the family favourites but also other recipes we've tried out in our kitchen. I don't like to fill up the post with alot of chatter. Sometimes there's a little story to tell, but usually I like to get right to the point. So this is for them, but hope you find some recipes that you like as well. I'll be sharing a lot of recipes, and along the way you'll find some crafty things and maybe some helpful hints too! Welcome!

Fluffy Whipped Chocolate Frosting

Fluffy and decadent and so easy to make. You'll love it! And the addition of coffee granules gives a deepness to the chocolate flavour without making it coffee tasting.

Ingredients:

3/4 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature

4 cups icing sugar, sifted

1 1/2 cups cocoa powder, sifted

2/3 cup  35% whipping cream

2 tbsps vanilla extract

pinch of salt

1 tbsp instant coffee granules

Whisk butter on low to cream then on high until light. Measure the icing sugar and the cocoa powder then sift. Add the icing sugar, cocoa, whipping cream, vanilla, salt and coffee granules. Again, start on low to combine then whip on medium high to high for 5 full minutes until fluffy. Frost your cake then refrigerate to set.

Makes enough frosting for a 2 layer 8" cake.
