This was very good frosting! I used it to frost the Chocolate Mayonnaise Cake II SUBMITTED BY: Cathy. I did need to use 2 cups of powdered sugar and I used brewed coffee instead of the water to make it less sweet as my cake was a dark chocolate flavor. It also "crusts" up nice so it would be easy to decorate. Other reviews said it didn't make enough for a 9 X 13 cake but the cake I made was only 11 X 7 so I had plenty. Good thing since I ate a tablespoon or two of it before I got it on the cake!!! Checking to see if it was missing anything of course!! Thank you for a great recipe.

This recipe is awesome!! If you are expecting a milk chocolate flavor you might be disappointed. It has a dark chocolate flavor. The only change I made was I added 1/4 cup of cold brewed coffee (an idea I got from another recipe) and only because after I had it all mixed up it seemed a bit thick for a cake mix (more like brownie batter). I don't know if it changed the flavor as this is the first time I've made it (maybe why I think it has a dark chocolate flavor). I will make it again though. I love the size too since I usually end up throwing part of a 9 X 13 away. I used a frosting recipe, Chocolate Frosting I SUBMITTED BY: K. Myhre

This was delicious!! I made it in the crockpot, it took about 5 hours on high. I sauteed the beef before I added it to the pot. I made 2 additions, fresh broccoli about 15 minutes before I served it and I didn't find the final color very attractive so I added some Kitchen Bouquet gravy darkener and served it over rice. I used the mushroom and onion soup mix and I think a can of mushrooms would be great in addition to the soup, I like them alot!! My mother made a similar dish we called Beef and Bacon over rice (I'll try to post it here). There weren't any leftovers, I might have to double it next time!!! I will make it again.
