Does anyone know of a recipe that is chocolate, but looks like really dark fudge??? I need one that will crust a little, but also be very dark. I've tried the cocoa in regular buttercream but it's not dark enough. I've also melted the choc. icing, which gets really dark and taste devine, but...... I can't smooth it out fast enough before it dries. I need it for my BIL wedding in April. Any ideas would be great!!!

i've got the *perfect* recipe...its super rich & fudgey and crusts.

chef annie's chocolate frosting:

2 oz butter softened
7 1/2 cups of powered sugar
1 cup of dark cocoa
1/2 cup heavy cream
12 oz cream cheese softened

*whip butter and cream cheese together, then add cocoa, sugar and cream and beat on low till fluffy. add more cream, if needed.
