Chocolate Fudge Buttercream Ganache Recipe

By Sarah Phillips

Generously frosts a two 8- or 9-inch layer cake with enough left over to pipe a  top and bottom border.

This buttercream is very rich. Have your cake and everything ready, BEFORE you begin to beat the ganache and butter mixture.
I was on the lookout for a great chocolate icing recipe and found this one on Baking 911. It was really nice because aside from tasting really good, it was dark in color and made without shortening. It spread beautifully. I highly recommend it...It doesn't crust, but it does harden. It spreads beautifully and you won't have to worry about crusting for smoothing purposes. It just goes on smoothly.- from baking chat board

I just tried this icing today. It isn't too sweet and it is very good...One piece of advice-let it cool long enough to thicken up a bit. I think I mixed it in too soon and then tried to put it on the cake too soon so it was too runny but I went back later and put on a border and it was soft but made nice shells! from baking chat board
