The Best Chocolate Birthday Cake Icing Recipe

Get ready to taste real chocolate heaven.

This amazing Birthday Cake Icing Recipe is not like the usual ones you’ve seen floating around the internet.

The taste, texture, and technique are very different and it yields a deep sweet flavor that the cake itself is optional. Yes, you can use your fingers, it is that good.

The secret to this chocolate icing recipe is the use of real good quality semi-sweet chocolate instead of cocoa powder.

The chocolate cooks down with another ingredient until it’s thick and creamy. Just like that:

It took me 4 tries and 3 cakes to get this recipe right.

But at the end, it was worth it. Because the icing was the perfect consistency that allowed me to spread on top and bottom and it even left me with a little left for decorative piping on top.

Not a fan of cakes eh? You can use this Chocolate Birthday Cake Icing Recipe to frost cupcakes, muffins, broccoli, celery, etc..

Well not the last two, but you know what I mean 😉

The inspiration for this icing came from my Spectacular Chocolate Cake Recipe. In there, the warm frosting is drizzled over the cake and then cooled.

This time, I went a step further and added an extra step and ingredient in order to whip it into a creamy consistency that is perfect for birthday cakes.

The decoration doesn’t have to be fancy, a few whirls here and there and it’ll be perfect. I didn’t even bother to leave the edges smooth in order to show the fudgy texture.
