CHOCOLATE SWISS MERINGUE BUTTERCREAM
There's buttercream, and then there's Chocolate Swiss Meringue Buttercream. Satiny smooth, rich and deeply chocolaty, this frosting will take your cake and cupcakes to a whole new level. For these spectacular results though, some time and effort is required-but no guesswork! The Betty Crocker Kitchens have laid out precise instructions and tips, so you'll know exactly what to expect-even in the case of the unexpected, check out our Expert Tips for more. Before you dig in, here's what to keep in mind. This frosting is called Swiss meringue buttercream, because you make Swiss meringue first, which means cooking egg whites and sugar over a pan of simmering water in a double boiler (to avoid burning) until mixture reaches 160°F (for food safety reasons), and then whipping egg white-sugar mixture into stiff, glossy peaks. With your Swiss meringue made, the next step is to begin adding softened butter, one piece at a time. Adding the butter slowly is key, because you are blending two mixtures that wouldn't normally mix. To pull it off successfully, have patience. Your frosting will simply look like soupy meringue until nearly the last piece of butter is blended, so keep the faith, follow the directions and keep beating. Once you've incorporated the butter with the meringue, it's easy to stir in the cooled, melted chocolate.

Steps:
- In medium glass or metal bowl, beat egg whites and sugar with whisk until blended. Set over pan of simmering water, beating occasionally, until sugar has dissolved and egg mixture reaches 160°F on candy thermometer, 16 to 20 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Pour into bowl of electric stand mixer fitted with whisk attachment. Beat on high speed 2 to 3 minutes or until glossy peaks form and bowl has cooled to feel slightly warm. Still on high speed, slowly add 1 1/2 cups softened butter, one piece at a time, scraping side of bowl occasionally, until mixture is smooth, thick and shiny, 12 to 14 minutes. Beat in vanilla. If mixture separates, beat until smooth.
- In small microwavable bowl, microwave chopped chocolate uncovered on High 60 seconds, stirring halfway through microwave time. Continue to microwave in 10-second increments, until chocolate can be stirred smooth. Let stand 10 minutes. Beat cooled melted chocolate into frosting until smooth.
- Fill and frost 1 (8-inch) three-layer cake.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees F. In a large bowl with an electric mixer beat the egg whites until frothy. Add the cream of tartar and granulated sugar 1 tablespoon at a time. Beat until the egg whites are stiff and shiny and the sugar granules cannot be felt in the whites. Beat in the vanilla, reduce speed to low and add cocoa until combined. With a spatula put the egg white mixture into a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip. Pipe 2-inch meringue "kisses" on a parchment paper lined baking sheet, at least 2 inches apart. Bake in the middle of oven for 2 hours. Turn off oven and leave the meringues in it for at least 2 more hours or until meringues are completely dry.

Steps:
- Make the cupcakes: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 12-cup muffin pan or two 24-cup mini muffin pans with paper liners; lightly spray the liners with cooking spray. Soak the prunes in a bowl with 3/4 cup hot water until softened, about 10 minutes. Pour into a blender and puree until smooth.
- Whisk the all-purpose flour, whole-wheat flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon in a large bowl. In another bowl, whisk the prune puree, brown sugar, eggs, yogurt, vegetable oil and vanilla. Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined (it's fine if there are a few lumps).
- Divide the batter among the muffin cups, filling each three-quarters of the way. Bake until a toothpick comes out clean, 18 to 20 minutes for standard-size cupcakes, or 12 to 14 minutes for minis. Transfer to a rack and let cool in the pan, 10 minutes, then remove from the pan to cool completely.
- Make the frosting: Whisk the egg whites, granulated sugar, cream of tartar and salt in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water (do not let the bowl touch the water) until the sugar dissolves, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove the bowl from the pan. Transfer the egg white mixture to a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment; beat on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, 3 to 5 minutes. Sift in the cocoa powder and add the vanilla and orange zest; beat to combine. Spread the frosting on the cupcakes.
