📝 Preparation Steps
1
Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir in sugar, cocoa, and salt. The mixture will be thick and grainy.
2
Whisk heavy cream, sour cream, vanilla and instant coffee in a large measuring cup. Slowly add the cream mixture into your saucepan and whisk until smooth. Cook over medium-low heat until the sugar has dissolved and is hot to the touch, between ⏱️ 4-8 minutes. (Mine cooked in about ⏱️ 4 minutes, but it could take longer.) Do not boil!
instant coffee (optional, see note)1 teaspoon
3
Transfer frosting to a bowl and let cool ⏱️ 2-3 hours until it’s spreadable. You can also chill it so it will set up faster. If it gets to hard to spread, microwave it on ⏱️ 20 second intervals, stirring in between, until it’s the desired consistency.
4
Frost top of cupcake with chocolate frosting. Store in refrigerator, let come to room temperature before serving.
