Dark cholocate frosting receipe from Alice Medrich Flavor Flours cookbook wont get thick. Help?!

Question

Frosting is really runny and won't thicken up like butter cream frosting

Jonathan L. · Answer

I still can't get the ganache to thicken and fluff up to frost a cake with.  Any ideas?  It's very runny

Yep....its essentially a ganache. As long as it doesn't look separated or grainy a chill will set it up.

Here is the recipe.  Thank you -  that was my thinking as well, but wasnt sure

I can't see the recipe, but my first instinct it to chill it and give it a stir every 5 minutes....when the consistency thickens give it a beat.
