Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a large bowl, beat the brown sugar and
margarine until light and fluffy. Add the sour cream, coffee, chocolate,
egg and vanilla extract; blend well. Lightly spoon flour into measuring
cup; level off. Stir in the flour and baking soda; mix well. The dough will
be very soft. Drop the dough by teaspoonfuls 2 inches apart onto ungreased
cookie sheets. Bake for 5 to 7 minutes, or until set.
Immediately remove from the cookie sheets. Cool completely. In a
small bowl, combine the frosting ingredients, adding enough milk for
desired spreading consistency. Frost the cooled cookies. Let standuntil
set. Store between layers of waxed paper in a tightly covered container.
