Very good and very simple. I melted the chocolate chips in the microwave. Use 50% power and check every 30-45 seconds until melted.

Made a chocolate cake and frosted with the cream cheese frosting. I had my 12 year old grandson here and he loves chocolate and he loved the frosting. Recommended for chocolate lovers and you can use fat free or light cream cheese and no one will guess.

I gave this one a perfect score because it turned out perfectly, and it tasted just as I expected. The slight tart flavor was perfect to compliment the dark chocolate cake that I made, and it was also fluffy and rich. No more store-bought frosting for me, this one's a keeper! Thanks for a great recipe.

I have used this recipe a couple of times. Once with chocolate cupcakes, and once with peanut butter chocolate bars (in place of strait melted semisweet chocolate chips. It came out great both times.

Though it's not in my nature to give bad reviews, this was just horrible! I used high quality ingredients and followed the recipe exactly, and it was unbearably biting (even my husband, who loves dark chocolate, could not stand it). I added another full cup of cream and extra pow. sugar (and then regular sugar as well), and it was very barely edible. I honestly don't understand the high reviews! I regret wasting the last of my good chocolate on this. I'll be having my cupcakes plain tonight!

This was good however the frosting looked and tasted alot like pudding. It wasn't what I anticipated for a cream cheese frosting however it was better after refrigeration.

Yum!!! I added the chocolate mixture slowly, tasting as I went, and didn't end up using it all (probably about 3/4 of it). This frosting is creamy and perfectly cream-cheesy!

Wow. Creamy and perfect chocolate-to-cream-cheese flavor balance. And EASY; don't be threatened by the double-boiler thing--just fill a pan with a couple of inches of water, put your chocolate and cream in another, smaller pan and hold it in the water to melt the chocolate. When the chocolate is nearly all melted (but not all), remove it from the boiling water and stir until creamy and smooth and fully melted.

Very good with several changes. I used 1-8oz cream cheese, Baker's semi-sweet chocolate squares (5 of the 8 squares in the box), 1/2 cup confectioners sugar, 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream. Great on chocolate cake or brownies.

LOVED IT! I used two bars of Ghirardelli 60% Cacao Bittersweet Chocolate along with about 10 mini Hershey bars. Came out wonderfully! I used it to frost a pound cake which was awsome!!!

Loved this stuff! Did make a few changes, I used dark chocolate chips, 1/2 cup sugar, 1/2 cup half&half. I used this to ice a white cake that had dark chocolate chips in it. Very tasty. It is already in the recipe book for future use. Thanks.

The consistency of this frosting is great, and it tastes good, but the taste is all cream cheese and hardly chocolatey at all.
