    2 1/2 c Cake flour
    1 T Baking powder
    1/4 teaspoon Salt

    chocolate mixture.

    minutes or until done.

    Blend in milk, cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until
    thick. Cool completely.
    In large mixing bowl cream butter, sugar and vanilla. Beat until
    light and fluffy. Gradually add completely cooled chocolate mixture.
    Beat until well blend. Do not over-mix or it will become soupy.

    with coconut or with anything else that you like.
