COFFEE-FLAVORED FROSTING

Coffee-Flavored Frosting image

We put this coffee frosting on top of Ghirardelli® double-chocolate brownies. My boys love this combo so much that they requested it for their birthday dessert! This recipe will frost a 8-inch square dish; double the recipe for a 13x9-inch pan or a cake.
