I made just as said, but this did not work for me. It turned out more like a milk chocolate buttercream than a dark fudgy frosting like in the picture. I also did not need to wait 20 min as it was too stiff to spread from the start, so I added more boiling water. I used it because I didn't want to waste, but it really wasn't the kind of frosting (fudge) that I was looking for at all.
