Old Fashioned Chocolate Frosting

This is my favorite chocolate frosting.  I could eat it with a spoon.  I don't remember where the recipe came from, though.

Ingredients:

1 1/2 c confectioner's sugar
3 Tbsp unsweetened Dutch-process cocoa powder
pinch of salt
5 Tbsp unsalted butter, softened
4 oz cream cheese at room temperature
7 oz bittersweet chocolate, melted
2/3 c sour cream

Directions:

Put butter and cream cheese into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.  Mix on medium-high until fluffy.

Reduce speed to low. Gradually add sugar mixture.

Mix in chocolate and sour cream.

Use immediately.

Makes 3 cups.
