I would love to find an exceptional recipe for chocolate buttercream . Do you have a KNOCK YOUR SOCKS OFF recipe, that will go well with chocolate cake with a peanutbutter filling???? It would be greatly appreciated..

Let's see, I made my recipe the other night and my eyes rolled back in my head it was so good! Does that count

Serious_Cakes, can I use high ration shortning instead of Crisco? I was looking at your recipe earlier,thanks.

I haven't tried hi-ratio, not sure how it would change it, probably be alright

Can I suggest Toba Garrett's Chocolate buttercream?

Best chocolate frosting ever....everyone loves it. It's kind of a combination between buttercream and ganache and SOO good. I have also tried just adding melted chocolate to my regular buttercream but I think this recipe makes a really deep, dark chocolate Hope that helps!

MOBOGAL, I'm sooooooooooo gonna try this recipe! It looks so darned yummy!! Thanks!!!
