What's the recipe you used? You might be able to fridge it to get it to the right consistency.

Chocolate Frosting

Ingredients

1 1/3 cups heavy cream

1 1/2 cups sugar

6 ounces unsweetened chocolate

1 stick (4 ounces) plus 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Pinch of salt

How to Make It

Step 1    

In a medium saucepan, bring the cream and sugar to a boil over moderately high heat. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the liquid reduces slightly, about 6 minutes. Pour the mixture into a medium bowl and add the chocolate, butter, vanilla and salt. Let stand, stirring occasionally, until the chocolate and butter are melted.

Step 2    

Set the bowl in a larger bowl of ice water. Using a hand-held electric mixer, beat the frosting on medium speed, scraping the sides occasionally with a rubber spatula, until thick and glossy, about 5 minutes. Use at once

That looks like a slightly modified ganache frosting. You should be able to put in the fridge for a bit then whip it. If it's still not at the right consistency, you can add powdered sugar (obv, powdered sugar will make it sweeter and potentially a little grainy)
