It's a fluffy, light-chocolate frosting when whipped by mixer. For darker, more glossy frosting, beat with a spoon.

This recipe along with the feathery fudge cake came from "The Better Homes and Garden " cookbook that I acquired before I graduated from Auburn University in 1966. It was there with me when I lived in the home management house and has been greatly loved and used. It is in tatters in 2019.It is still in my collection of cookbooks. I cannot give you the copyright date as that page is missing.
