This is the most delicious, rich frosting. While great when eaten right away, I think it’s even better the next day!

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Cream butter until smooth. Add in vanilla.
  • Gradually beat in powdered sugar and cocoa powder.
  • Add milk. You may add more or less milk to get it to the consistency you’re looking for.

Notes

It’s easiest to mix in a stand mixer, but you may also do it by hand.
This makes enough to frost a 9″ x 11″ cake.
