This recipe can be found with my recipe for Chocolate Marble Sour Cream Pound Cake & thought I would post it alone in the event you were looking for a great tasting & easy Frosting. This is my easy go to recipe that I created for my Marble pound cake. The instant coffee granules although a small amount adds a lot of punch when it is combined with the added coffee flavoring. The picture was taken before I added the coffee granules, so it comes out a little more amber in color. Enhance the frosting with shaved chocolate & gold wrapped Hershey's Kiss Candy & it really makes an impressive cake.
