I have been making this chocolate glaze recipe since 2 yrs whenever I make birthday cakes for hubby and mittu. I am always reluctant to try heavy frosting with butter, cream etc So when I was searching for making a quick and simple glaze for mittus birthday cake 2 yrs back, happened to see this recipe and after that most of the cakes that I bake for family occassions will have this frosting as the lil one demands it.This is quick and handy which is originally from Hersheys website and I have tried this glaze with cakes,cupcakes and even for cookies, works perfect.I used this frosting for buttermilk chocolate cake that I made, will post the recipe by next week.
