Soft Chocolate Frosting

"This is a very old recipe that is popular in my family. My grandmother made it when I was little and then my mother. It is not as sweet as other frostings and is cooked in a double boiler and because of this it stays soft. You put it on hot and sprinkle with chopped walnuts if you like and it is great. This should frost a 9x13 cake. If you want it real thick, half it again."

Most doctors may have heard of it but don't know an awful lot about it and so many times it goes misdiagnosed.
