Comment préparer Chocolate Buttercream Icing

Melt 4 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate with 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter in a double boiler or microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring until smooth.
Set the melted chocolate aside to cool slightly.
In a medium mixing bowl, beat 1 large whole egg and 2 large egg yolks at high speed for 1 minute until light and frothy.
Set the egg mixture aside.
In a 1-quart non-aluminum saucepan, combine 1 ½ cups granulated sugar and ¼ cup water. Stir well to combine.
Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture simmers. Cover and simmer for 5 minutes.
Uncover the sugar syrup and continue to simmer over low heat, without stirring, until it reaches the soft-ball stage (234-240°F on a candy thermometer).
With the mixer running on high speed, slowly drizzle the hot sugar syrup into the reserved egg mixture in a thin, steady stream.
Continue beating until the mixture is thick, glossy, and the bottom of the bowl is cool to the touch (about 5-7 minutes).
Gradually beat in the reserved melted chocolate mixture and 1 tablespoon of brandy (optional) until thoroughly blended.
In a separate small mixing bowl, beat 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter at medium speed until light and fluffy.
With the mixer running on high speed, gradually add the beaten butter to the chocolate mixture, one tablespoon at a time, until fully incorporated.
Beat the icing for an additional 5 minutes until smooth and creamy.
Refrigerate the buttercream, stirring every 10 minutes, until firm enough to spread (usually 30-40 minutes).
