MINT ICING

dash of salt

3 Tbsp. milk

1 Tbsp. light corn syrup

2 1/3 c. powdered sugar

1/2 tsp. mint extract

1-2 drops green food coloring

Directions:

PREP AND COOK: 90 min. COOL: 1 hr.

1. Melt margarine and mix in cocoa. Allow to cool. Add honey, eggs, sugar, flour, baking

powder, and salt. Mix well. Add nuts. Pour batter into a greased 9-by-13 baking pan.

Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes. Cool.

2. Prepare mint icing: Soften margarine. Add salt, corn syrup, and powdered sugar. Beat

until smooth and fluffy. Add mint extract and food coloring. Mix. Add milk gradually

until the consistency is a little thinner than cake frosting.

stiffen the icing. Remove from the freezer and carefully add a layer of chocolate icing.
