    FROSTING DIRECTIONS: Warm the peanut butter and honey in the microwave just until it gets soft and easy to stir, then add everything else and beat until smooth. Spread over hot cake and sprinkle with one cup of mini-chocolate chips. NOTE: You might like to double the frosting -- but still only use one cup of mini-chocolate chips.
