    Chocolate Sundae Frosting


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    5 squares Baker's Unsweetened Chocolate
    1/4 C butter
    6-1/2 C sifted confectioner's sugar
    1/8 tsp salt
    2/3 C milk (approx.) - whatever kind of milk you have on hand-skim, 2%, whatever)
    1 tsp vanilla
    1/2 C coarsely chopped nuts
    2 tsp hot water

    Recipe



    Combine sugar, salt, milk & vanilla. Stir to blend
    Let rest, while you melt chocolate & butter over very low heat, in a double boiler if you have one
    Cool the chocolate mixture slightly
    Add chocolate mixture to sugar mixture. Stir well
    Let stand, stirring occasionally. If necessary, add more milk a teaspoon at a time until it reaches spreading consistency
    Set aside 1/4 C of frosting
    Fill & frost cake with remainder
    Sprinkle nuts over top of cake
    Blend hot water with reserved frosting, & drizzle this over the nuts
    Frosts 3 - 8" or 2 - 9" layers very generously. If you want to make a real -impression- , use 1-1/2 boxes of cake mix & make 3 9"-layers -- then you'll increase this recipe by half
