Chocolate Frosting Recipe

RE: Chocolate Frosting Recipe Post By Elaine (Guest Post) (07/28/2004) 1 cup sugar 1/4 cup margarine or shortening 1/4 cup milk dash of salt heat above on stove in nonstick pan. Bring to boil and boil for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and add 1 tsp vanilla and 1/2 cup chocolate chips (I use half semi-sweet and half milk chocolate). Stir until chips melt and it starts to get thick. spread on cake.

Hersheys Cocoa stirring. Add alternately, 3 C. powdered sugar and 1/3 C. Coffee. (if you are going to pipe through a decorater bag, sift the sugar) Beat. Add vanilla, almond or orange flavoring to taste while beating. If too thick, add coffee a few drops at a time. My family fights over who's gunna lick the bowl (and they're all grown-ups lol) ; ) RE: Chocolate Frosting Recipe Post By jamie (Guest Post) (07/28/2004) In a bowl, in the microwave, melt 12 ounces of chocolate chips with a tablespoon of oil for about 1-2 minutes or until the chips are melted. Stir in powdered sugar until it is the right consistency-not much, or it will be too thick. This makes a very rich frosting.
