I piped it onto the cupcakes anyway, then chilled them, and the frosting hardened and kept its shape, but it looks all lumpy and weird. What did I do wrong?

The only trouble is that the mini chocolate chips that happened to be on the bottom, all stuck to the paper liners. When the paper was removed the chips literally pulled out of the cupcake! There were plenty more through out the rest of the cupcake and it did not effect the taste. The icing was really good and not too sweet. Very easy to make.

Once it is hot, I continue to cook it for a couple extra minutes. That seems to work for me...

It's supposed to taste like that. :) You didn’t fail, it’s a different type of frosting than your typical sickeningly sweet american buttercream. It’s supposed to taste like that. :)
