Chocolate Marshmallow Frosting Recipe

August 22, 2008 in Recipes by danky

This frosting goes with the recipe for Incredible Melted Ice-Cream Cake

Makes 1 1/2 cups, enough to frost the top of a tube cake or Bundt cake.

INGREDIENTS

2 cups confectioners’ sugar

1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

6 large marshmallows

4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter

1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon milk

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

DIRECTIONS

Sift the sugar and cocoa powder together into a large mixing bowl. Set
aside.

Place the marshmallows, butter, and milk in a medium-size heavy saucepan
over low heat. Stir until the marshmallows are melted, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove
the pan from the heat. Pour the confectioners’ sugar and cocoa mixture over
the marshmallow mixture. Add the vanilla and stir until the frosting is
smooth and satiny.

Use at once to frost the top of the cake of your choice.
