For a richer flavor, use dark cocoa powder. Toast the pecans lightly before chopping to enhance their nutty flavor. If the icing is too thick, add a tablespoon of milk at a time until you reach the desired consistency. Store the bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
