Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the semisweet chocolate chips and evaporated milk.
  2. Microwave on high for 30 seconds, then stir until smooth. Repeat in 15-second intervals if necessary until fully melted and glossy.
  3. Allow the chocolate mixture to cool slightly so it is warm but not hot to the touch.
  4. In a separate mixing bowl, beat the butter and marshmallow cream together until light and fluffy.
  5. Gradually pour the warm chocolate mixture into the butter-marshmallow mixture while beating on medium speed.
  6. Continue beating until the frosting is fully combined, smooth, and creamy.
  7. Spread immediately over cooled cakes or cupcakes, or chill for 10 minutes if a firmer consistency is desired for piping.
