Real Fudge Icing

- I really love this icing, but you do have to work with it. Thanks for watching, and please feel free to share my videos. Here are the ingredients and directions.
1/2 cup of butter or solid vegetable shortening
2/3 cup whole milk
2 cups sugar
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
In a sauce pan, mix everything except the vanilla and bring to a rapid boil, stirring constantly. Once it comes to a rapid boil, boil for two minutes. Remove from the heat and add your vanilla.
Pour into a large bowl and beat with your mixer anywhere from 5-15 minutes. Sometimes mine is ready at seven minutes, other times it might take longer. You really have to work with it. When ready, you can frost a cooled pound cake. I hope you enjoy!

Been making this for many years. I use small can of cream instead of milk and Boil 3 min. Yes it is a crazy icing. Weather makes it work up different. Only kind of icing my mother ever made for chocolate.
What kind of cream in a can are you referring to?
@@zechariahthomas7166 pet milk or also known as evaporated milk
Not the sweetened milk kind.
@@mistydutton6016 Thank you so much! I was thinking that because I think that it would make the frosting have an even richer and smoother taste! I think that by using evaporated milk it will also help the frosting to thicken a lot faster compared to using carton or gallon milk!
FINALLY-I found my Mom’s chocolate frosting recipe!! Sheer goodness and happy memories.
🙏🏻❤️
I made a chocolate pound cake tonight and was looking for the perfect chocolate icing/glaze to use for it. Every recipe was too thin. This was the perfect consistency and it has an amazing chocolate flavor! We can never go wrong with those old recipes! Thanks for sharing🤗
Awesome! I'm so glad you liked it and you are so correct. It's my favorite. Thank you
@@cricket516 hello Cricket I'm a new Subscriber and I was scrolling looking a a Strawberry hommade Frosting without the cream cheese couldn't find and I gotten start on cooking some cake but I was looking for a Glaze chocolate Frosting that u can Pour in my God I found one yours, I didn't want the frost it's I wanted to Glaze my pound cake and u also Use Regular sugar the Pound is good but my Family's use Regular sugar instead the Pound, I use to do homemade chocolate, Carmel, Lemon, those was my Mind 3 I always made but I got out of it's because wanted me to make, and Make in Never wanted to Buy. I always cook them in Alabama, it's was ok because I did thems home but when I movie to Florida and I start cooking for Family's gathering, and Church even though I Didn't mind at the time but later I got will u. Could u and these cakes are not Cheaps and it's take time to do thems right, SO THE WAY U DID YOUR IT'S CAME TO MIND THAT MY AUNTS IN GRANDADDY, they use to add a little of the dough in with the Frosting maybe a Table spoon, but I'm doing it's your way Thanl u for your Hard work on your RECEIPES God bless you and your Family's
@@jesuschild2218 I really hope you like it. It’s our favorite.thank you for your kind words
This is the best video I've seen for this icing. This is my husband's favorite from when his mom made it. Now I should be able to make it for him. TY!😊
Back again using this awesome recipe for a holiday cake! Thanks for keeping your recipe and video up!
Thank you for your very kind words. I'm so glad you like it.
Thanks girl,now I can finally make a cake with some fresh icing,appreciate your very clear explanations!:)
Thanks, Cindy!!!
I just made this tonight and holy smokes if It isn't the closest I've come to my great grandmas fudge icing. I was so happy !!!! Thank you so much, your videos never let me down
Yay! I'm so glad you liked it. It's one of my favorites and yes, reminds me of my grandmothers. Thanks, Jeny!
My mom use to make a cake that had black walnuts in it and then she would use this icing. You talk about good!!! OMGosh, it is delicious!!! The black walnuts give a flavor that goes so we'll with this fudge icing...ummm..ummm...ummm. I have to make one very soon
That does sound delicious! I need to try it. Thank you
Oh that stuff is the best. I love that kind.
THanks so much
I loved seeing this video! My mom always made white cake with fudge icing but I cant find the recipe she used anywhere! I think I even put it somewhere "special" where I would always be able to find it...🙄😅 Thats my life.
I have several school books like you have. Each mother would be asked to send a couple of her favorite recipes with their kids to school for a special recipe book the school would have printed to sell to make money benefiting the school. Thank you for sharing this video. I look forward to seeing the others you have!
Hi, Barbara. This is one of my favorites and it’s really easy to make. I’ve made just the icing before without the cake and ate it. I’m always putting things away and then can’t remember where I put it. I hope you have an awesome week.
Your beef tips in the pressure cooker came up in my suggestions. Your name is what drew me to your video. In 2012, our family suffered the loss of the youngest of us eight children. My sister, who we called Cricket, died in a drowning accident at the age of 48. I am number seven of the eight, with a tee between us, so we were always close. I miss her every day, today, watching your beef tips video made me think of how, though you don't have this problem, she could only cook a few things. What came to mind today was when she put a dinner roll in the microwave fir five minute and caught it in fire 😆We were by her devastated as any family would be, by her loss, but fun memories like microwave fires help out quite a bit. I am going to subscribe and keep watching videos. Thanks for some funny memories today. ✌️❤️✌️
I am so sorry for your loss! I'm happy to know that there was another Cricket. I am a twin. Your story reminds me of what my sister did. She put some dinner rolls that were in the paper pan that they were bought in, and put the whole thing in the oven, and it caught on fire. LOL! She still gets joked about that. Again, I am so sorry. I know you miss her terribly! You will be in my prayers.
Cooking with Cricket (cricket516) ~ Oh my lol there's a good memory. Thank you so much, we really miss her. She had two boys, both now have one. Hold. She would have adored them. She'll see them when they get there. ✌️❤️✌️
Amen. You are in my prayers.
Looks gorgeous & who in the world would thumbs down this video? 😒
Thank you so much! I appreciate your kind words
Thanks for your wisdom!! And we should wait and see and i will keep you posted. I love you😍😎
Lu ya, too, nephew

This icing recipe is Perfection! Just like my mother made through the years for my birthday cakes. It sets up perfectly and tastes like icing should to me. Thanks so much!
This is one of my favorites. Thank you!
Just a tip. I've made this fudge since I was a little girl, over 65 years ago. To shorten the beating process, I set my pot, in a bowl of ice water and beat it with mixer and only takes less than 5 minutes. I'm too lazy to mess up another bowl by pouring it into one. Also, the way to tell when it's just about ready, is that it becomes lighter in color. I'm afraid I often over cook so that it makes fudge. That's how my dad liked it but I like this way for the 10 layer cake. Thanks so much for good memories.
Thanks for the tip and I will be trying it. This is one of my favorite frostings.
I'm right there with you, around 45 years +\- and there have been times I could almost drink it and other times when the fudge would be perfect. I couldn't agree more about just knowing when that color changes, that the moment is approaching.
Looks so yummy delicious! I'm definitely going to make this. Thanks for sharing your recipe Cricket.
I hope it turns out great. You really have to work with it. Let me know
Thank u nice and simple Will try.
This is one of my favorites
Love this kinda frosting, hadn't made it in forever... thanks for sharing :)
It's so good. Thanks, Anita
Yummy.........those are the best kind of cook books. Wish I was there to visit and have a slice. 💕💕
Me too, Marnie! Hopefully soon
Thank you for responding dear Cricket. I love your lovely southern accent.
I love those old recipes. Looked delicious! Thanks for sharing😃
Me too. I'm going to make some more out of that book. Thanks, Christy
Mmmm that looks so good 👍👍👍💕💕
Thank you
Those kind of cookbooks are the best! I love when you can see a recipe coming together and thickening up because then you know it is close to "quality control" time! ;-) Looks delicious!
My favorite books. You really have to work with it, but it's so delicious.
Good looking fudge icing
Thank you
That looks so good! Of course, everything you do looks good! Hope all is well with you, Cricket!!
Thank you so much, and thanks for your kind words
Cricket your fudge icing looks delicious and on the bunt cake pure heaven.
Thanks so much buddy
I have been looking for a poor fudge frosting for a chocolate bunt cake with butterscotch pudding in it. I lost my frosting receipt but I found my cake receipt so I loved the look of your frosting!!! I will let you know how it comes out but it looks so so yummy!! Many just do it over the top and I love mine covered!! Yours looks perfect!! So happy I found you!!!! I am excited to make my cake and this frosting! Your a sweetie for sharing! God Bless
Thank you so much, Ginger! I really hope you like it but you really have to work with it and yes, I love my cakes covered in it too.
That cake & icing looks absolutely delicious! I’m trying this tomorrow. Thanks Cricket!
It's one of my fvas. I really hope you like it.
This cake looks so good, thanks for sharing xoxo
Thanks, Crystal
That looks SO good Cricket!!! Wish I had a piece of that cake...TFS! 😊
Wooww 😍😍😍 ❤from India 😘kerala
Thank you for this Recipe
That icing looks incredible Cricket.
I gotta try it real soon.
Love that cookbook.
Thank you so much!!
This frosting looks like it would go great on a doughnut!
Now I want to make some donuts and try this as the frosting. It sounds delicious
Looks yummy.....great recipe!
Thanks, Cheryl
Ive been looking for this everywhere! Thank you SO much for your video showing me how to make it!!
🤗 New sub!!
Thank you so much, Jess! If you try this, I really hope you like it
Mama those are the best recipes 🥰👍🏾
Thank you so much
I like to use this icing on a yellow sheet cake in which I have poked holes all over. I pour over a thinner version so it soakes into the cake. It's very tasty, although messy looking. And yes, pecans are the best!
That sounds delicious. I think I wanna try that. Thank you
Wow!!! That looks amazing!!! I can only imagine how yummy that was!!
When I turned the camera off, I cleaned that bowl. LOL
Beautiful icing 😍 😋 ❤️
Thank you
This looks so good will put this on my next vanilla bundt cake. Thanks for sharing 😁👏.
I hope you like it. Sometimes you really have to whip it for a long time. It doesn't work well on a rainy day
Yum!!! I bet that would be soooo good on brownies! Think I'm gonna do that. 👍🏼😋
You gave me an idea!
Hello Crickets, icing looks yummy!!!
Thanks, Nataly
Looks amazing and I bet it smells great, too!
It does and thank you
That looks awesome. I would love to try that.
It's so good. Thanks, Val
Your frosting looks delicious!! 😊👏
Thank you
Oh my goodness my mouth is watering!!!
Thank you and hope you have a great weekend
Oh my, this looks so good cricket. and it would be worth the wait having to mix it up that long. I have to try this and wonder how this would be on a angel food cake. I don't know if it would hold up because angel food cake isn't as firm. I also love frosting LOL. I hope you have a good day and had a good week. take care
I'm not sure about the angel food cake either. It's worth making it though. Thanks, Robin
Icing Looks Amazing 👌
Thank you
That looks soooooooo good!!!!!
Thanks, Emily
I'm sure it's a labor of love but it looks so yummy!
It is and so good. Thanks for watching
I'm Finnish, and I have been making this my whole life, too :-D My favorite chocolate frosting/glaze, also because you don't need chocolate but it sure is chocolate-y and delicious :-D
My favorite too. Thank you. I have a friend on here and she’s Finnish too. Her channel is called Paivi projects.
Thank you so much for this video. I have a recipe like this but it’s hard to tell exactly when it’s done without seeing it in action.
It is hard to tell when it's just right, but so worth it.
Thanks I like cooked icing and finally a recipe that doesn't use powered sugar
That looks totally delicious!
Thanks, Patrick!
Oh that looks so delecious..
Thank you so much
amazing recipe. loved and enjoyed.
Thank you
You are welcome back to my chanel. You may like it.
Will try soon. All my fudge icing have turned out grainy lately. This looks so yummy.
Thank you. Every time I make it, it turns out good. Some days i have to mix it more than others.
It looks fantastic Cricket ❤️ I bet that's delicious. I loved your picture of the cake on Instagram. Love & hugs 🤗
Thanks, Allan. I am feeling better. The pain is still there, but not like it was. It's not affecting my mood anymore. If that makes sense. Love and Hugs
Mmm... definitely going to try this! It looks yummy :)
I hope you like it. You really have to work with it, and it's best not to make it on a rainy day.
this icing is the Best!!!
Thanks, Joy. It's one of my favorites too
Looks good Yummy thanks for sharing cricket
Thank you so much
The whether does affect this type of icing. If it's raining or very humid outside, does effect outcome.
Yum looks great! Subscribed. Sandra sent me
I have been trying to find my mother n laws recipe for stove top chocolate frosting. This is close. Thank you.
I'm glad you found it. I really hope you like it
Wow, I bet that taste great. I wish I had some :-)
It was awesome. Thanks, Siri
Hi! I'm making this for my anniversary cake today!
I really hope you like it. My anniversary is Saturday. Happy Anniversary!
Happy Friday 😊 I have been looking for this old fashioned recipe for a long time. I'm soooooooo happy I came across your video. I remember when I was a little girl my mom used that box frosting and it was cooked on the stove..that was the best icing ever. This is exactly what I'm looking for. Thanks for sharing this. How would you make a vanilla version of this icing? I wish they still sold that box frosting..such wonderful memories ☺👀
Thank you so much, Violet. This is one of my favorites. The mixing times might be different and it has a lot to do with the weather. I don't have a vanilla version of this. I'm so sorry, but I will try to find one.
@@cricket516 Happy Saturday Cricket:)))...okay..thank you..peace and blessings to you:)))...have a safe and warm weekend.
Looks Good to me!!..👍👍😋💓💓
Lastly, what kind of cake mix do you use for this particular cake?
Yummy Goodness!!! What a treat!!! Thanks for sharing!!! XOXO 😘!!!
Thank you so much. I appreciate you watching
So you won’t boil this as long as you would to make the hard candy only long enough to beat the heat out of it. It’s almost like hers needed to cook a bit more. I bet it’s delicious.
I would be willing to clean the bowl up for you.....lol
Oh yea i enjoy it a lot....now to go to the store.....have a great weekend...
Thanks, Robert. When the camera went off, I cleaned that bowl. LOL
Nice.
love it
Thanks, Tommy
nice
Thank you
Would it be okay to use half butter flavored shortening with the butter? Also, do you think that by adding heavy whipping cream would make the frosting too thick?
I don’t think I would use either because this is an old recipe and it’s like making real fudge except you don’t cook it as long and you whip it. That’s just me and my opinion.
good
I have used a metal bowl of ice water, under the frosting bowl,
to cool similar ones with success. Like your recipe, thanks.:-}
That's a great tip! I will do that the next time I make this. Thank you for sharing and for stopping by
Yum !
Does the frosting get a little crunchy after it cools? My husbands granny used to make him a cake with boiled chocolate frosting that would crack and be a little crunchy after it cooled. I have tried making “granny’s “ frosting ever since we got married (50 years ago) and it has never turned out right. I’m willing to try another recipe if yours has this consistency. Thanks!
It really depends on the weather. It’s best to make on a dry day. Sometimes it can get a crack to it.
Does it ever get grainey? Sometimes my icing is grainy. This looks wonderful.
Mine never has
Yummy
Now that looks goog
Thanks, Diane. It's a family favorite
Oh my word....duhlish!
Thanks so much, booger
Mmmm yummy 👍😋
Thank you
Cricket why you doin' this to me...lol...I think I've put on 15 lbs just watching your videos..haha. Looks great!
LOL! I gained that much eating it. LOL
Might have to make your next video on making a lettuce salad instead....haha
LOL true
That looks so good. Do you have a diabet version of that receipe
I'm sorry I don't. I can research it
Hi, Cricket. Your icing looks beautiful. What do you love about frosting? Have a good day, Cricket. I am looking forward to your No Bake Lemon Bars. :)
Thank you and I love everything about frosting!
I am not a frosting person. I do love fudge though. 🎉👍😍
It's so good. Thanks for watching
❤luv. That
Probably didn't reach the soft boil when cooking so that made whipping take longer.
It has always taken me a long time to mix it. I honestly never thought to boil it a little longer. LOL Thanks for watching
Hi thank you for posting. What kind of sugar: granulated or confectioners?
I used granulated. This icing can be very tricky to work with and you really have to work with it, but the end results are the best. If you try it, I hope you love it and it turns out great. If you have any questions, please let me know.
ok sis move on over . . . you had me at fudge . . . tell Rickie & Alex I'll wrestle them to lick the bowl & beaters ROFLMA Great job sis I loved you sharing this recipe with us. That bundt cake looked good too XOXO Happy Cooking
Thanks so much, sis. I licked thatt bowl clean myself and didn;t share. LOL!!! Ricky took most of it to work with him. He was going to take the whole thing! I said, no you're not! LOL. I sliced up some for him to take.
Oh, my, YUM!!!!
Thanks, E
turned out perfect and it was raining
Awesome!
Yummy!! :-)
perfect👏👏👏👏
Thank you
