I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my frosting turned out grainy. I think I might have overmixed it.

This frosting is a bit too thick for my taste. I think I'll try adding a little more milk next time.

I'm not a big fan of chocolate frosting, but this one is actually pretty good. It's not too sweet, and it has a nice rich flavor.

This frosting is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
