HOW DO YOU MAKE FLUFFY CHOCOLATE ICING?
Whipping the butter and sugar together on a medium speed for about 5-7 minutes will incorporate more air into the mixture and give you a fluffier frosting.
For a light and fluffy frosting try whipping up a batch of Swiss or Italian meringue buttercream. Both use whipped egg whites to create a light and fluffy frosting. Mix in 1/2 cup of melted and cooled dark chocolate and a teaspoon of espresso powder for an amazing fluffy chocolate icing.

John, I love the way that icing has came out. It looks amazing simply amazing! I can't believe how creamy that icing is! Interesting fact the brand of confectioner's you use is manufactured by Domino believe it or not. also you bring up a lot of good points with the icing sugar how the high ratio sugar to fat increases stability and sweetness and also crusting. I've used so many buttercreams over the years of the work that I've done that you know the rules and the uses for different applications. But overall your icing looks scrumptious and so rich and I agree that coffee heightens chocolate cuz I put coffee in my chocolate cakes or anything chocolate and that cocoa powder also a plus as well. 🙂

Helpful tip: I have 3 kitchen-aid mixers and they are heavy. 2 Artisans and one large drop down handle. I use them almost every day but moving them forward in order to use them is a a pain. So I put a thin plastic cutting board sheet (color to match my mixers) under them and it slides out so much easier. Thanks for the video.

Amen on sifting that cocoa and powdered sugar, brother! I use Cacao Barry's Extra Brut as my go-to cocoa powder, and it has a deliciously high fat content so it clumps naturally.
