I know you like chocolate cake. I don’t think I am going out on a limb by saying that, or giving away any huge secret. I mean, I like chocolate cake… actually, who DOESN’T like chocolate cake? If a chocolate cake is made right, there isn’t a softer, more flavorful dessert out there.

ANNNNND if you top it with my new, most favorite frosting…well, it’s a match made in heaven! Chocolate Cream Cheese Frosting is the new star of my frosting dreams. It’s creamy, sweet, and chocolate-y with that slight cream cheese tang that I am obsessed with! The texture of the frosting is ultra creamy, and like I said before…get your spoon out, because you are going to be sampling this one bite at a time before it ever makes it onto your cake! Even if you aren’t a “cream cheese” person (gasp) this chocolate frosting recipe is definitely worth trying. The creaminess the cream cheese adds is rich and silky! Of course, if you’re still not on board, you can always use my Creamy Chocolate Frosting recipe, which is a more traditional creamy chocolate buttercream. But really, this one is worth a try!
What Kind of Cream Cheese Should I Use?
I’ve partnered with my friends over at Challenge Dairy on this recipe. I’ve worked with Challenge for years and I really love knowing that their cream cheese is farm to fridge in 24 hours, with zero growth hormones. It’s super creamy and you can taste the freshness. Challenge is the only dairy company that controls the entire butter process, beginning with the milk. ANNND I not only used Challenge Cream Cheese in the recipe, I used Challenge Butter as well. I love a cream cheese frosting with the addition of butter. I feel like it adds an extra layer of creamy richness. The combination of pure, dairy ingredients in this frosting, paired with cocoa powder and powdered sugar… UGH SO GOOD!!!! And like I said, this frosting on top of a moist chocolate cake. DESSERT PERFECTION! It spreads like a dream… And I mean you can go the extra mile and pour a CHOCOLATE GANACHE on top for a few extra calories. I mean, who’s counting? No need to wait. Dig right in… Save a slice for me!
