Hi, I am wondering if anyone has a recipe for milk chocolate icing? I found quite a few recipes that call for semi-sweet melted chocolate, but I am looking to melt milk chocolate and not sure if it will work in the same recipe. Thanks for any help!

What about using chocolate syrup, do you think that would work?

You could use chocolate syrup. It is good and it will be thick. Or coco adding milk. I don't have access to the ones that I use, but you can check out the recipes tab here.

Thanks Onebigdogmama. I was thinking that I could just add chocolate syrup into my buttercream. I'm not decorating the cake, my friend's 13 year old daughter is and I just offered to make the frosting.

Melting regular milk chocolate chips would also work, I have done that before when I ran out of semi-sweet.

Thanks pattpm78, I will try that, I have some candy bars instead of chips, so I'll try those, just don't really want to run to town to get stuff.
