  1. Very rich and very yummy. This recipe does not make very much, though. If there are more than 2 layers to a cake, the recipe should be doubled.
     
  2. Made this to top a bundt cake and it made more than enough. Although I didn't get stiff peaks after adding the sugar, it still came out frosting like and tasted heavenly! I don't like heavy buttercream frostings and this was great! I put this into my book#234006. Thanks so much, Carol!
     
  3. I made one of my adopted recipes (Walnut Brownie Cheescake #3189)but I found it to be a bit dry so I used this recipe as garnish. I used pasturized egg whites for the egg whites and everything else I followed as directed. Thanks for posting. I plan to add this recipe into the description for others to try as well :)
