It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).

Really fluffy and tasty! It was very moussy and worked great as a filling between cake layers.

When I started the icing I thought, "what a great idea and so easy!" It took at least 20 minutes to get the heavy cream/chocolate mixture to get to a whipped state. Then once it was there, it started to separate and I couldn't get it to stay together at all! What a shame because it tasted great!
Sounds like maybe the mixture hadn't cooled completely before you tried beating it with the mixer.

Why this has yet to be rated I have no clue! This is so simple, quick, if your in a hurry, and delish. I used 1c of Semisweet Chocolate Chips in place of the Milk Chocolate since that was what I had. With that ingredient, I don't know, it tasted like a really good ganache. Super easy and came together great. The taste is rich, not overly sweet, & velvet smooth in your mouth (I think it was the whipping that does that).
