  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk

15. Note: If the icing is too thin for your taste, it's simple to add more cocoa or confectioners sugar until you reach the consistancy wanted. Or, if it's too thick just add a bit of milk. Also, if you decide to do away with the coffee (in the cake or the icing), just replace it with cocoa. :D.
