Mocha Frosting

I have not yet tried this, but it is from an overdue library book (From Our Mothers' Kitchens) and I want to return the book tomorrow, so need to get the recipes I want to try copied down, pronto. I love anything mocha, and this frosting sounds so easy and so good. I think I'll have to make a chocolate cake just to try it!
