Chocolate-Peppermint Icing

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 4 ounces chopped semisweet chocolate
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract

Directions

Place chocolate in a medium bowl. In a small saucepan, bring heavy cream to a boil over high heat; stir in peppermint extract. Strain cream into chocolate. Let stand 5 minutes; stir until smooth (mixture will appear oily at first.) Cool until mixture falls in ribbons when spoon is lifted, 2 to 6 minutes.

To ice cake, set the cake on a serving platter. Tuck parchment or waxed paper under sides of cake (to keep platter clean). Pour icing onto center of cake. Use an offset spatula or a dinner knife to spread evenly over the top and down the sides. Let set, about 30 minutes.

                Congratulations, Linda013!!
                I'd say that's just about the best compliment a cake could get!
                Well done! (I hope mine turns out as well as yours did!) :)

                This cake is delicious and moist. I added about a tablespoon of sugar to the icing and will definitely be making this for mother's day!

                Made this cake for a friend.  He loved the peppermint.  I got a proposal.

                Don't like peppermint, then you cant go wrong sticking with Vanilla, I use the pure vanilla.

                The chocolate icing would probably be good without adding any additional flavor, but when I think about some of my favorite chocolate bars orange or hazelnut extract could be delicious.

                What can you use instead of peppermint? I dislike this flavor but the cake sounds good.
