Sour Cream Chocolate Icing

Great on chocolate cake!

1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
¼ cup butter or hard margarine (not soft)

½ cup sour cream
1 tsp vanilla
4 cups icing (confectioners’) sugar


Melt chocolate chips and butter in large saucepan over hot water, or on low, stirring constantly, until smooth. Do not overheat. Remove from heat.

Add sour cream, vanilla and icing sugar. Beat on low to moisten. Beat on medium until fluffy. Add a bit more sour cream or icing sugar if needed for proper spreading consistency. Makes 2-1/4 cups.
