    Chocolate Cream Cheese Frosting


    Source of Recipe


    #107376, from WaterMelon

    Recipe Introduction


    I don't like traditional cream cheese frosting, so my
    friend made this and used it to frost chocolate cupcakes
    when I went to her place for lunch. She's right, add
    chocolate and I'll devour anything! She gave me this
    recipe (it's originally from Diana's Desserts), and I
    thought I'd share it with all my fellow chocoholics.
    (she frosted 12 large cupcakes). Cooking time is the
    estimated time for melting chocolate.
