A very simple frosting but very rich would be a ganache.
Chocolate Ganache:
2 Cups Whipping cream
16 ounces Semi sweet chocolate, chopped
2 Tb liqueur your choice of flavors, almond, raspberry, orange. Or use vanilla extract.
Put chocolate in a mixing bowl.
Place cream in a sauce pan. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Stir often so it does not scorch.
Pour hot cream over the chocolate, let sit for a few minutes. Stir until chocolate has melted and is a nice smooth consistency.
Depending on how you want to use the frosting do any of the following.
To pour over cake and have cake drenched in the chocolate as a glaze Allow the ganache to cool for about 30 minutes, pour over cake Leave until chocolate sets.
Frosting: Let ganache stant for about 3-4 hours or until soft spreading consistency. Spread over cake.
Whipped Frosting. Place beaters in the refrigerator when you begin. Place bowl of ganache in refrigerator UNCOVERED keep refrigerated for 2-3 hours. Whip ganache until it becomes light in color and fluffy.
This should make enough to frost a 8 or 9 inch round layer cake.
This recipe also makes very good truffles. So you do not have to worry about unused ganache.
