  • Yield Makes about 3 cups

Ingredients

    • 2 1/4 cups confectioners' sugar
    • 1/4 cup unsweetened Dutch-process cocoa powder
    • 1/4 teaspoon coarse salt

    • 3 ounces (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter, softened
    • 3/4 cup sour cream
    • 9 ounces bittersweet chocolate, melted

Directions

  1. Beat cream cheese and butter with a mixer on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes.
