Light fluffy and yummy! The chocolate flavor is way above the flavor of powdered cocoa. It is a bit buttery but I noticed after the icing sat a while I tasted the chocolate more. I will definitely be using this one again and again. I put it on Banana bars. A recipe I found on this site. Yummy! Who doesn't love banana's and chocolate!

Did not turn out at all. Ended up with what looked like cottage cheese. I beat it for 15 minutes and gave up.

I was excited to find this recipe because I wanted to use up some of the egg whites left over when I made a yellow cake but it really did not turn out right for me. It separated as I was mixing it and didn't ever get smooth. In fact it was separating more as I was mixing it so I gave up and mixed the chocolate in before I got it smooth because it seemed like it was just getting flatter the whole time. If someone can tell me what I did wrong maybe I'll bump up my rating ;)

I found this to be a little heavy on the butter flavor. Next time I make it I will probably cut back on the butter by at least 1/2 cup and adjust from there. It made it VERY rich. I would likely chill it just a bit first before spreading it as well and wait until the cake is thoroughly cooled. The butter base doesn't hold up well on something above room temperature. Overall flavor met good reviews with the family!

i used this frosting with a yellow cake and it was delicious. My dad does not like things to be too sweet and this recipe was perfect for him. Very easy.

This is an excellent creamy, easy to spread, icing. The flavor is wonderful, not too rich or too sweet; just melt in your mouth goodness. Definitely whip your egg whites to stiff peaks. Recipe lacks the instruction of when to add the vanilla, but be sure to add it. The description indicated there would be flecks of chocolate but since the receipe directs you to melt all the choclate I'm not sure how you obtain this. I guess you could grate some in afterwards--it might make the icing even better, if that's possible. Just what I was looking for. Thank you!

I must've done something wrong, because I excpected this frosting to be "fluffier". However, to bring it to the thickness and fluffiness I desired, I just added powdered sugar. The results were fantastic!! By far, the best tasting chocolate frosting I have made! My kids couldn't get enough of it!!
