Ingredients

  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 2 cups butterscotch chips
  • 1 cup strong coffee
  • 2 lbs. powdered sugar
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

  1. Melt: Combine chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, and coffee in a saucepan. Stir over low heat until just melted.
  2. Beat: Remove from heat and stir in the powdered sugar and salt. Beat until the frosting is smooth, glossy, and easy to spread.
  3. Pro Tip: If the frosting isn't shiny enough, stir in a few drops of hot water until it reaches that perfect gloss!

Notes

Tammy's Tip: If you decide to bake this as a 13x9x2 sheet cake instead of layers, you can easily cut this frosting recipe in half.
