If you love coffee, you’ll probably love this icing. It’s excellent with these coffee or chocolate flavored cakes!
See how we used it on our Owl Cake, here.

By 1 and 1/2 stick butter do you mean 1 cup and a half? Now butter comes in 1/2 cup sticks….?
That would be 1/2 + 1/4 cup. So 3/4 cup, or 12 tablespoons.
