Chocolate/Espresso Pour Icing image

This cake icing is perfect for a 9x13 inch cake left in the pan. It is rich with chocolate flavor and married with one of chocolate's natural partners, espresso. I added instant espresso powder to the milk called for in the recipe, but I suppose if you wanted to omit the milk, you could just add the equivalent of freshly brewed espresso with it's exquisite crema. Or even go total latte.Getting the espresso flavor in there is the key.

This icing is okay. It's not my favorite, but it's not bad either. I think it's a bit too sweet for my taste.

I was really excited to try this icing, but I was disappointed. It was too runny and didn't set up properly. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This icing is delicious, but it's a bit too thick for my taste. I think I'll try adding a little bit of milk next time to thin it out.

Meh. This icing is okay, but it's not my favorite. I think it's a bit too sweet and the coffee flavor is a bit too strong.

This icing is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still good. I think it would be better if it had less sugar.
