My blog is not the same caliber of most cooking blogs. Mine is more fundamentally simple -- a placeholder for my recipes, especially my "tried and true" recipes that I either want to share, or to have bookmarked for future use. This is also a nice place to document recipes for my daughter, as she has become interested in cooking and baking. Some day, these will be recipes that she may want to reference, as many are favorites or things we have made together.

Hershey’s Perfectly Chocolate Chocolate Frosting
When it comes to frosting, are you a chocolate or vanilla fan? Whichever is your favorite, I can tell you I have got some good recipes. Here's a sinfully rich chocolate frosting recipe, thanks to Hershey.
½ cup (1 stick) butter
2/3 cup HERSHEY'S Cocoa Powder
3 cups confectioners' sugar
1/3 cup milk
1 tsp. vanilla extract
DIRECTIONS
Melt butter.
Stir in cocoa.
Alternately add powdered sugar and milk, beating to a creamy, spreading consistency. A small amount of additional milk may be added to make it more spreadable.
Stir in vanilla.
Makes "just enough" for 24 cupcakes, or a 2-layer cake. Adjust the ingredients up a little if you are a big frosting fan (LIKE ME! Let's just say that I doubled it for about 30 cupcakes and JUST had enough)!
