Ingredients
- This simple icing makes cakes look smooth.
- 6 ounce (6 squares) plane (semi sweet) or possibly lowfat milk chocolate
- 1/3 c. lowfat milk
- 2/3 c. whipping cream
Directions
- Break chocolate into small pcs and place in a medium saucepan with the cream. Heat gently, stirring occasionally, till the chocolate has melted and the mix is smooth. Allow the icing to cold till it is thick sufficient to coat the back of a wooden spoon. Use it at this state for a smooth glossy icing or possibly allow to thicken to obtain a swirled pattern.
- Place cake on a rack and pour icing over the top. Spread it out and allow to drizzle down the sides. I have also used extra to coat the sizes to seal the entire cake. If you are placing decorations on the top, now is a good time to do it as it will set into the chocolate better. If you wait, you can always 'glue' the decorations on with additional melted chocolate.
