Creamy and very flavorful. Easy to make and mixes up well. I used dutch cocoa (more chocolately than regular), margarine, and french vanilla coffee (only instant coffee I had on hand). I ended up using 2 tsp coffee in the half-batch I made. -
Wow! This is great! I used 1/2 recipe as a filling for Deep Dark Chocolate Cake #12488. It was a little thin for a filling, though, so I put in a little more powdered sugar. I think next time I'll cut back on the liquid. I didn't have coffee powder so I used instant coffee granules dissolved in the milk (had to heat the milk a bit, but cooled it before adding to the sugar). Thanks!

Very creamy and good frosting. I used this to frost Cindy Lynn's Chocolate Cake #25080. It made more than enough. It was delicious! Thanks wildheart for a real keeper. -
Wonderful frosting! Very simple to make, perfect consistancy and plenty to frost a two layer cake. I used it with the chocolate mayonaise cake (#79427) and it was delicious.

Still in West Virginia but we've moved a few miles away, down to the county capitol. It's a compromise: bigger than our last town but smalelr than the "big city" of Cumberland MD, right up the road. Jobs are not that plentiful here so I am fortunate to be able to work at home (I'm a writer). My passion is cooking and feeding people family well....my pet peeve is the family court systems in America......my love is for emergency medicine and the people that make survival in a crisis possible
