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.
