Instructions
Frosting
Combine chocolate chips, cream and butter in a medium saucepan or double boiler, and stir over medium-low heat until smooth. Remove from heat.
Blend in 4 cups powdered sugar with whisk or electric mixer. (To speed up the process, you can set your bowl over ice as you whisk or beat it.) Beat until it holds its shape.
To make the frosting in our super fast "secret" (food processor) way:
Put your chocolate chips in the food processor with the chopping blade. Chop until chocolate is a fine powder.
Melt your butter in a glass measuring cup, or other bowl/cup with a spout. Make sure the butter is all melted and SIZZLING hot! Turn on food processor with chocolate powder; quickly pour all the HOT butter through the feed tube. Let it run about a minute until chocolate is smooth.
Add powdered sugar a little at a time. When it starts to get stiff, add the cream.
You need to work quickly, as frosting will set up fairly fast, so start icing the cake asap.
