I was very disappointed with this recipe. I triple checked the recipe to make sure I didn't misread anything, and I definitely followed it exactly. Unfortunately, I didn't think the frosting was very sweet and it was nothing like any buttercream I have ever had. I eventually added another cup of confectioner's sugar and a tablespoon of peanutbutter to try to make it usable for my family.

Just made the frosting today, following the recipe exactly. I used it to frost cupcakes and a small cake. Very easy and very yummy!

The first time I made this I used half cocoa powder and half melted unsweetened chocolate. A friend asked me to make this one again so it must be good... The second time I didn't really measure anything and forgot the vanilla... still came out great! :) I used this on "Too Much Chocolate Cake" cupcakes.

This is the first buttercream frosting I have ever made and it was super simple. The cupcakes turned out great.

Wow. This is the perfect frosting! If it weren't so bad for me, I'd just get a spoon and eat the leftovers. Yummy, and easy too!

This recipe itself tastes good but isn't really a "buttercream" as many know it. I would use this for an old fashioned looking cake but not for decorating, personally.
