Delicious. My son is gluten and casein free, so I subbed with coconut oil and rice milk and it still came out creamy and frosted cupcakes beautifully.

I have make this a few times and it is easy and a rich and thick frosting. After I frost my cake I put it in the frig for a few minutes so the frosting sets up.

GREAT! i used real butter and 2 1/2 cups sugar. also i refrigerated until i was ready to frost and it was very thick and rich. in fact so thick i didnt think it would be enough to frost a whole cake but it was more than enough so dont skimp on the middle layer. worked great

I substituted butter for the margarine and used only 2 1/2 cups sugar. The taste came out alright but the consistency was a little runny. Next time I'll cut back on the milk.

This was ok. I had to stir it for 10 minutes over a pot of simmering water before it didn't taste grainy. I probably wouldn't make this again

i loved this but i must admit i butchered the original recipe based on other's reviews - upped the cocoa to 1 cup, decresed the sugar to 2 3/4 cups, and increased the milk pretty significantly. the result was a thinner, satiny chocolate glaze, not so much a frosting. it was delish!

this frosting is amazing but im a person who likes her chocolate sweet so for someone who is not as big of a sugar fan put this on those bland cupakes that dont have enough flavour or add more cocoa and less sugar

Really yummy! I put this frosting on the chocolate chip cookie dough + cupcakes = the best cupcakes ever recipe. I followed the advise of other reviewers and used real butter, 3 cups of powdered sugar and about 1/3 cup of extra baking cocoa. It had a rich chocolate flavor. This is my new frosting recipe:) THANKS

Loved this frosting! Altho, to be honest, I did tweak it a bit. 3/4 cup on the cocoa & 3 cups of the powdered sugar - sheer perfection! Got rave reviews on home-made walnut brownies.. will be a staple henceforth. Thanks Tianne!

Wonderful recipe! Thank you. Per other reviews, I only used 3 cups of sugar and it was just right. The recipe made enough to cover a 9x13 cake generously.

This frosting turned out really nice - great taste and consistency. I added a little too much cocoa (1 cup), but it was still very very good.

This is pretty thin in consistency, but it worked well for frosting a cake. I don't think I would have been able to use this for piping.

Easy and great! Uses a lot less butter than some other chocolate frosting recipes that I looked at, so I liked that!

Loved this frosting! I made some yellow cupcakes and decided to use this frosting. It was a great combo. Some reviewers have said it was too sweet. It is very rich and sweet so if you aren't a sweet frosting fan don't even bother using this recipe.

Really good frosting. Went really well on yellow cupcakes. Followed the advice from others: more cocoa powder (2/3 c or so) and less powdered sugar (2 1/2). Will definetely make again!
