Chocolate Frosting with Chocolate Chips Tips

Can you use other kinds of chocolate chips to make chocolate frosting with chocolate chips?

Definitely! This recipe calls for milk or semisweet chocolate chips, but you can also use white, dark or bittersweet chips.

What kinds of desserts can you frost with chocolate frosting with chocolate chips?

This frosting is ideal for spreading on cakes, cupcakes and brownies, but not cookies since the frosting is thick. Royal icing is a much better option for cookies.

Can you make chocolate frosting with chocolate chips ahead of time?

Yes! This recipe instructs to store the chocolate frosting in the fridge until thick enough to pipe or spread, so feel free to make it ahead and store it until you’re ready to frost your dessert. Homemade frosting will last up to 1 week in the fridge, and about 1 month in the freezer. Here are more dreamy homemade frostings to crown your favorite desserts!
