DH: (looking at one of my cookbooks)
Me: Oh! Whatcha wanta make?
DH: (shows fudge recipe) But it takes 2 hours, I'll make it another time.
Me: I can make some fudge frosting, it will be ready in less than five minutes.
DH: What would I do with that?
Me: Eat it with a spoon of course!
DH: (rolls eyes heavenward and laughs) I should have known you were going to say that.
Minutes pass
Me: So do you want me to go make that frosting?
DH: Sure
Five minutes later DH is eating fudge frosting with a spoon.
Me: See, five minutes and it's good isn't it?
DH: Well it's not fudge, but it is good.
Me: Not bad for five minutes.

Sounds like a great solution. We love brownies (Ghirardelli mix) but they take 50 minutes to bake. My husband will give me that sad-puppy-dog look so I will make them...but we get to like the bowl so our chocolate fix gets a little sated before they are done.
Funny, a few years ago they advertised taking a can of frosting, spread it in a pan and chill, instant fudge.
