Oh dear, there seems to be something wrong with this recipe. After having tasted the icing to make sure it was "just right", then getting a second opinion from one daughter, who needed to consult with another daughter, there just wasn't enough icing to cover the dark chocolate cake for which it was meant. I made another double recipe, so there was enough for the cake, and I put what was left in the freezer. It is delicious on its own straight out of the freezer! Ev, I hate you, my fat tushy hates you, this is wonderful!

This is just fantastic!!! I actually iced it on a rich butter cake. And the blend of flavours were just fantastic!! My family and I loved it, and who wouldn't..i mean it is nutella!! I had just a tablespoon leftover after icing and sampling it, and instead of sticking the whole tablespoon in my greedy mouth, i spread it on 2 thick pieces of toast..TO DIE FOR!!

This was delicious. When I made this it thickened up but it had a grainy looking appearance. I frosted a chocolate cake and the flavor combination was great. Update 7/22/07. I whipped the cream with the vanilla until stiff and then I added the Nutella and beat it in slowly. This time the frosting was smooth and not grainy! Just perfect.

I did full justice to the beaters, spatula and the mixing bowl. I couldn't leave them just like that with all that yummy nutella on them in the sink for the tap water to enjoy, could I? NO! LOL So, I licked them ALL clean! Some fell onto my hand and I dug my teeth into that too!(It's the eve of Halloween night- note the use of the word 'dug'- Dracula comes to my mind!) ! This is really yummy and perfectly satisfied my chocolate craving. I made this for a little girl who wanted a Nutella spread on her bread. She loved it and sent a hug your way for posting this Thank you for the best Nutella icing recipe I've ever tried!

I made this for Recipe Dare! game and so glad I did! I made a chocolate cake with layers of vanilla pudding topped with this icing. Wow, a dessert worth making again! Thanks evelyn for posting this! I did half the recipe for just 1 layer!

Oh My!!! This Nutella Icing was awesome! I made it for a co-worker's birthday and iced it on MizzNezz's Quick Yellow Cake. Everyone raved over it! The icing fell a little while transporting it to the office, but it didn't affect the taste at all! I'd suggest icing the cake just before serving for best results. Also, while it was delicious on the yellow cake, I think it would have been even better on a dark chocolate cake. I will definitley make this again! Thanks for sharing!!!

Very good I made this and put it into a pastry bag and kids iced cookies. It was so much fun.....tastes even better if mom lets you squirt it directly into you mouth. If you have trouble making it whip the cream first and put whipped cream back in the fridge to stiffen up and then mix in the nutela. I also added 1 teaspoon gelatin to the whipping cream because I didn't want the icing to soak into the cookies and make tham soggy, but they were all gone before they had a chance to get soggy.

This recipe tasted wonderful, but I along with Jawserwog had trouble making it thicken. It was just runny,so I even went out and bought extra whipping cream to add and it didn't help. So I served it anyway. I had made cupcakes for the kids and chilled them along with the icing and just dipped them in and told the kids to eat them quick before all the icing came off. I will try it again but instead of whipping cream I am going to use the packaged dream whip and add liquid as needed. Thanks for the recipe.

This was just too good! Like another reviewer, I barely had enough to frost the cake because we kept eating it. (BTW, I used it on a dark chocolate cake, and the combination was heavenly.) To the guy who said his didn't thicken up, I wonder if a) you beat it long enough, or b) you had heavy whipping cream and not light cream. Mine was thin at first, but it thickened up beautifully as I beat it. Thanks for a simple but wonderful recipe!
