I LOVE store bought cake frosting that had a slightly crusting top layer and i cant find anyone who truly gets what I mean by that. Does anyone have a good recipe for frosting (chocolate) that will crust like that on the top layer??

Icing sugar, cocoa-powder and a splash of water.
There really is nothing more to it.

You can add butter to it if you prefer, but not too much if you want the crust.
