Chocolate Whipped Cream Frosting

Chocolate Whipped Cream Frosting is creamy, delicious and tastes just like Whipped Cream. Perfect for when you need a frosting lighter than buttercream.

Sometimes you need a frosting that is a little lighter than regular buttercream frosting, at those times you should try our Best Whipped Cream Frosting.  It is light and airy and delicious and tastes just like Whipped Cream.  But unlike regular Whipped Cream, this frosting holds its shape, lasts for days and can be used to frost both cake and cupcakes.  You definitely will want to add this frosting recipe to your repertoire.

For best results, put the bowl (stainless steel is the best) you will be using to make the frosting in freezer for at least an hour prior to making Chocolate Whipped Cream Frosting.  Add the whipping cream to the cold bowl.  Turn the mixer to high and mix until soft peaks form.

 

That’s all there is to it!  This Chocolate Whipped Cream Frosting is absolutely delicious and so easy to make.

How much frosting will you need?  That always depends on how thick or thin you apply the frosting or how much decorating you do but here are a couple of guidelines. Our recipe should make enough The Best Whipped Cream Frosting to cover a 9″ x 13″ sheet cake or a two-layer 8″ cake.  If you are making cupcakes, you should be able to frost 24 cupcakes if you apply the frosting with a knife.  If you swirl on the frosting with a pastry bag like we have done here, you should be able to frost 15-18 cupcakes depending on the size of the swirl.

This is a GREAT chocolate frosting – light, fresh and creamy.  It would be great on any dessert that calls for frosting – a cupcake, cake or even brownies!  This one is a keeper and we think you’ll go back to it again and again! Enjoy!
