CHOCOLATE CARMEL FROSTING This frosting came with the recipe, it looks great, but was very chocolatey. I personally found it to be a bit too sweet, however it spread smoothly over the cake. Maybe try it with coconut mixed in and less or no chocolate.
1 c. br. sugar 4 Tbsp. butter 1/2 heavy cream (whipping cream) 1 c. chocolate chips
Combine all of the above and heat over med. heat. Bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook 3 min. Cool in freezer or fridge, and spread on cake.
