Butter and chocolate, only two ingredients and so simple too! What could be better than that? It's not just easy, it's yummy too!

Ingredients

  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 lb (2 cups) butter

Steps

  1. In medium saucepan, melt chocolate chips and butter over medium low heat, whisking frequently.
  2. When melted, cool completely and chill until solid.
  3. Remove from fridge and allow to come up to room temperature.
  4. Put all the chocolate in a mixing bowl and beat on medium for 2 minutes until light in color and fluffy.
  5. **Makes enough to fill and frost an 8" layer cake, or 24 cupcakes. Store refrigerated, but allow to come back to room temperature before serving.
