Made chocolate cupcakes and filled them with a cherry compote and used this icing for a coworker who was sadly getting transferred. I honestly don’t like cherries but they’re his favorite fruit. This frosting in my opinion was actually really good and very simple to make. Also tried making it with strawberry preserves and it worked just as well!
