I would think the chocolate topping would thin the icing down too much icon_sad.gif

Haven't heard of anyone doing that, guess the only way to know would be to mix up a small amount and try it! Janice

I haven't heard of it either BUT it eems to me it would be fine if you keep two things in mind. The topping has sugar in it and the cocoa is usually unsweetened, may need to add a little extra slat or flavorings to cut down on the sweetness and the other thing is whatever liquid you use (milk, water etc) you would need to reduce that since the chcocolate topping is a liquid. If you try it, let us know!

I added about a teaspoon of topping to a small amount of bc, and it tasted yummo, but it did change the consistancy as we all thought it would.
Maybe adding 1 tbls milk 1 tbls topping and a little salt. This combo could be endless, strawberry, vanilla etc.
One other thought i had was using Ice Magic(what its called here) the chocolate that you squeeze on icecream then it goes hard, using it for writing and decorating. I am a choc and icecream freak if youhadnt guessed, blessed with fast metablisim.
If anyone else tries it and finds another way of mixing let us know.
