Chocolate Whipped Buttercream Frosting that tastes like light chocolate whipped cream frosting. This whipped chocolate frosting is the best! It's super light and fluffy - like an ultralight chocolate mousse in frosting form. And since this frosting falls in the semisweet to bittersweet chocolate range, it isn't too sweet either. A couple notes about this frosting - first, the cooked milk/flour mixture needs to be completely cool before continuing on. If it's still warm, it will melt the butter, and the frosting will be too loose. Second, don't cut the whipping steps short. The frosting needs to be whipped on high for several minutes in order to have its ultralight texture. Also, a reader (thanks again!) left a comment saying that chilling the frosting helped it come together for her. So, please check out the comments below the recipe. *Note - I had several comments saying that the frosting was separating. I worked on the recipe and changed it to make it whip up easier.
