Fudge Icing
2 ounces baking (bitter) chocolate
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup sifted powdered sugar
1 egg
1 egg yolk
Melt the butter with the chocolate, add vanilla, and sugar. Beat in the egg and egg yolk.
Let stand one hour until set. If you refrigerate it, it will harden. Double the amount for a 9x13 cake
I realize some will be uncomfortable with the raw eggs, I've lived 81 years and they haven't bothered me yet, I don't worry about it.
