This frosting was disgusting. I followed the recipe and it never came together. I made it twice and no. No. No. No! DISGUSTING. Too much sugar. It never melted even after boiling it twice. Worst ever.

Ok, I've been baking for about 50 years and this cake was a disaster. It stayed wet in the middle until I baked for another 45 minutes + 15 more. The frosting was unmelted sugar, after boiling on the stove, had to take off before it burned, then stirred, and stirred and still sugar crystals. Is there something missing from the recipe?? I don't know but won't be making again, it was a mess.

The cake and icing should be on the menu of every Food52 Book release party! (B, you're invited!)

well, the closest way for us all to do this is to make the make, make the icing, and give it al a big taste. Are we up for it?

This has been quite the experience. I haven't yet completely shaken off the chills. Film at eleven, or tomorrow, whichever comes latest.

The Foley Cake she's referring to is what my family knows as Belle Foley's Chocolate Cake: http://www.food52.com/recipes/search?recipe_search=belle+foley%27s+chocolate+cake
It was clearly intended to sit underneath this fabulous frosting. Photos tomorrow. Promise.
