Chocolate Icing (Frosting)
"When my Mom says she's making chocolate cake, she is making a yellow cake with this icing. It is exactly like her recipe#261588 but with cocoa added. Just like with that recipe, do NOT try to make this frosting if it is raining, it will NEVER get hard. I also love this spread between 2 teacakes (recipe#251091) to make a sandwich cookie."

This is absolutely wonderful. My frosting turned out nice and creamy and was perfect of my brownies. Thank you for sharing -
This frosting is really good! At least, the ingredients I used following your directions made an awesome frosting. We do not like super sweet frosting, and we do like dark chocolate, so I halved the sugar to a cup and I doubled the cocoa to 1/2 cup. I also used fat free evaporated milk. The frosting came out perfect. Not too sweet, very dark, and just the right spreading consistency. Thanks, ColCadsMom. =)

The joy of my life are my 2 sons, born in Dec. 00 and Jan. 04. I am currently a stay at home mom and love to make homemade meals and treats for my family. I live in PA, but the rest of my family are in AL and GA, and my boys and I spend weeks at a time in the South. I enjoy traveling with my husband and 2 sons.
I am an Auburn University Alumni and a HUGE Auburn Tigers fan...WAR EAGLE! From August until November, you know what I'll be doing on Saturdays...watching ANY NCAA game on TV.
I am also a fan of NASCAR. I have only been to 2 tracks, Talladega several times and Dover once, but I hope to visit many more. Pocono is only an hour away, so maybe someday! Atlanta is another real possibility with family close by.
My furbaby Wickett (a pekinese-poodle mix I had for almost 14 years) went to live at the Rainbow Bridge on April 4, 2007. He was literally my first born child! He will always be in my heart. We have a new dog now, Roxie, who is a Shih-tzu. I am an animal lover, and will always have a pet!
