Mocha Cream Cheese Frosting Recipes

Steps:

• Stir warm milk and coffee powder in large bowl until the coffee dissolves completely.
• Whisk confectioners' sugar, melted butter, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract into the milk mixture until no clumps remain and you have a smooth frosting.

Steps:

• 1. In a medium size bowl add the room temperature butter and cream cheese. Beat till creamy, then add the sifted powdered sugar, instant coffee granules and coffee flavoring or liqueur. Then beat till combined well. Add more instant coffee granules if you want more coffee flavor.
• 2. Frost cake or cookies as desired, then garnish with shaved chocolate, or dust lightly with cocoa powder. Garnish with additional candies, maraschino cherries or nuts, what ever your choice. Chocolate candy sprinkles are also nice.

Steps:

• Arrange rack in center of oven and preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9 by 13-inch cake pan with cooking spray and set aside.
• Whisk together flours, cocoa, salt, baking soda and baking powder in a medium bowl, then sift ingredients through a fine mesh strainer.
• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together melted butter and oil. Add eggs and egg whites and whisk to incorporate. Fold in yogurt, vanilla, sugar and dissolved espresso powder. Melt the chocolate in the microwave for 90 seconds or over a double boiler. Fold chocolate into batter.
• Gradually add sifted dry ingredients and stir until just incorporated; do not overbeat. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until cake has risen nicely and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool completely.
• While cake is cooling, make the frosting:
• Combine all ingredients in a bowl and beat with an electric hand mixer until soft and creamy. Spread frosting evenly over cake and cut into squares. Finely grate one small square of chocolate. Sprinkle the chocolate shavings over the cake.

Steps:

• In your mixer, beat the softened butter with the powdered sugar until it is creamy.
• Add in the cocoa powder, vanilla extract & coffee.
• Beat with the mixer until it's nice and fluffy (about a minute or 2)
• This makes a perfectly spreadable frosting. The nice thing about it is that you can put it in the fridge to make it a little more firm if you would like.

Steps:

• Beat butter, whipping cream, liqueur and cream cheese in medium bowl on medium speed until fluffy.
• Gradually beat in cocoa, coffee and powdered sugar on low speed until smooth.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour two 9-inch round baking pans, in order to make 2 cake layers.
• In a large bowl, stir together sugar, flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla. Beat all on medium speed with electric mixer for 2 minutes.
• Stir in boiling, strong, hot coffee; batter will be thin.
• Pour batter into prepared pans. Bake 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
• Cool 10 minutes, then remove cake layers from pans to wire racks.
• While cake is cooling, make the icing. To make icing, mix cream cheese, margarine, and vanilla extract. Add sugar and beat until creamy and smooth.
• To finish cake, make sure the layers are completely cool. Take one round layer, place it on a serving plate, and top it with a layer of icing. Then place the other round layer on top, and ice the entire cake.

Steps:

• Beat whipping cream and sugar together in mixing bowl until stiff. Dissolve coffee granules in boiling water. Cool. Add to whipped cream and beat in. Makes enough to frost and fill one 8 or 9 inch 2 layer cake. Keep Mocha Cream refrigerated.
