Leftover Frosting!

I made a chocolate cake for a friend's birthday recently. I definitely should have halved the frosting, but it was my first time using the recipe, and I didn't realize. Anyway, I have a ton of delicious chocolate frosting (a large soy yogurt container full!). There are obviously lots of things I could do with it, (other than shoot it into outerspace to keep me from eating it!) but I thought I'd appeal to you folks. If YOU had a vat of chocolate frosting, what would you do with it? Can it be frozen? Are there particularly delectable solutions to such a problem? :P
I'd stick a spoon in it and start eating....
or maybe make a cake for a friend or a neighbor ;D
You could make a bunch of cupcakes and freeze them with the icing on. Add more milk to some of it and pour it onto something (ie ice cream) like fudge sauce. Mix nut butter into it and eat it on toast.

I would do exactly the same thing.... ::)
If you want to eat it, or if you have a big family to feed, I would agree with the previous posters
If you don't want to eat it, I would make a batch of cupcakes and frost them and take them to the local homeless shelter/soup kitchen, keeping enough for a treat for myself (call ahead, our state laws allow such food to be made at home, but yours may not).
Spread it on Graham Crackers. :D
somewhere on your street there is an old widower or widow. If not tehn tehre must be a young couple with a new baby...or else a new family on the block? One of those people would be blessed
make yourself a cake?
If you want to freeze it you'd have to let us know which recipe you used...
Regular (non-vegan) frosting doesn't do too well in the freezer. I dunno about yours. ;)
...I'm guessing it may be gone by now though...? ;) ;D
I'd stick a spoon in it and start eating....
i totally do that too. sometimes i skip the spoon process and start going at it with my finger
Dip fruit in it, spread it on pancakes, stir it into oatmeal, put it on bread, make cake/cupcakes, ...
MMM - reminds me of the (non-vegan) nutella filled crepes I had in Europe - this would be a great vegan variation!
