Answer 1

My eleven year old loves to cook, too.  You might need a little bit of help with this, but it's such a good recipe I thought I should give it to you.  This stuff is so yummy - I could just about eat it by itself.

German Chocolate Cake Frosting

Mix:

1 c. sugar

                3 egg yolks

1 c. evaporated milk

½ c. butter

                1 t. vanilla

Cook until slightly thickened and smooth.

Add:

1 1/3 c. coconut

1 c. pecans

Stir until thick enough to spread.

Answer 2

Ok..lets see...You could do a chocolate ganache but mom will have to help you:

9 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped

1 cup heavy cream

   1.   Place the chocolate into a medium bowl. Heat the cream in a small sauce pan over medium heat. Bring just to a boil, watching very carefully because if it boils for a few seconds, it will boil out of the pot. When the cream has come to a boil, pour over the chopped chocolate, and whisk until smooth.

   2. Allow the ganache to cool slightly before pouring over a cake. Start at the center of the cake and work outward. For a fluffy frosting or chocolate filling, allow it to cool until thick, then whip with a whisk until light and fluffy.

Answer 3

Tell Mom to go buy some.

Or use jam.

Answer 4

CREAMY BUTTER FROSTING

Ingredients:

1/3 cup butter

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 pound (3 1/2 cups) sifted confectioners sugar

3 to 4 tablespoons milk

Preparation:

Cream butter, salt, and vanilla, beating until light and fluffy. Add sugar gradually, beating after each addition. Add 3 tablespoons milk, beating until smooth. Beat in more milk until desired spreading consistency is reached. Makes about 2 1/3 cups of frosting, enough to frost tops and sides of of an 8-inch 2-layer cake or a 10-inch tube or bundt cake, or about 1 dozen cupcakes.
