    I made 1/2 recipe as suggested by another for a sheet cake and I used barley malt extract instead of corn syrup and I whipped the heck out of it till it was light in color no problems spreading it next time I might add a bit of milk chocolate to sweeten it up but I like it as is

    Incredibly easy and pretty quick for frosting so very delicious. After whisking the melted ingredients together, I put the bowl in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes before I whipped it. When served at room temperature the icing was soft (but definitely still held its shape, creamy, chocolately, and sweet (although not overpoweringly so.

    It was excellent and incredibly simply! The only thing I will say is that you have to let the frosting cool for about 2-3 hours at room temperature before whipping if you mixed it in a bowl that retains heat...like porcelain which I used. :

    I made this for my son's birthday cake and it was very easy to make. I whipped it and it looked great and tasted great. However, it became very hard and thick very quickly. When we went to cut the cake, it was a total disappointment...too rich for my taste. It was more like a ganache vs. a creamy frosting.

    I made half the recipe, cooled it and then refrigerated (maybe 15 mins. then it whippped up great--without refrigeration, mine didn't whip up. I thought that it was as good if not better then any of the canned store bought and very easy to make.
