Good idea! Was a half recipe of frosting enough to get a nice thick layer? I might have a chance of doing a decent frosting job on just two layers.
Yes, the frosting was thick, almost too much frosting. I used the large bag of powdered sugar, 1/4 cup of brown sugar and 2 sticks of butter. Turned out perfect.
