We're glad you enjoyed the cake, Chrissy! Cocoa likes to absorb any moisture it can, (including from the air) so it sounds like it just needed a little more thinning to make it easily spreadable. Sometimes just adding a teaspoon of warm water can help greatly. Another option is to hold back some of the cocoa powder, a couple of tablespoons, and sprinkle it in as needed until the texture reaches the thickness you prefer. Annabelle@KAF
