Chocolate Chip Buttercream Frosting

BirdyBaker's Note:

This is THE frosting! Never have I tried such a great frosting. I serve this on almost any cake I make and the beaters are ALWAYS licked clean. Sooooo good. This makes enough to frost 1 2 layer cake or a 13x9 pan. You have to try this at least once in your lifetime!

Mmmmm good icing! Used some mini m&ms instead of chocolate chips and used to frost some chocolate cupcakes! Thanks BirdyBaker! :)

This is a great frosting recipe...I had no problem making it very easy, except I used regular size chocolate chips that I already had on hand. Tasted great on top of chocolate cake. The whole family enjoyed the frosting on the cake!! Will use again..Thanks Birdy for posting a great frosting!!

Sorry but I wasn't crazy about this recipe. The icing seemed thin and overly sweet. Maybe it was just me but not one of the better buttercream frosting I have tried.
