Is it possible to make frosting by cooking Dark Chocolate?

Question by nkshamma: Is it possible to make frosting by cooking Dark Chocolate?
Is it possible for making chocolate frosting for cupcakes by using “cooking Dark Chocolate”? I accidentally bought 1/2 kg of dark chocolate for frosting. So, is it possible to make frosting with cooking dark chocolate?

Best answer:

Answer by Jennifer C
Definitely!! These are just two recipes I found. You can also just up the amount of powdered sugar you use if you would like it sweeter. The dark Chocolate is a wonderful classy taste. It is for more mature tastes though. Although my kids love dark chocolate.
