Chocolate Frosting

This chocolate frosting is creamy, smooth, and delicious. Best of all, it's easy to make. Here's what you need:

Equipment: Medium Bowl

                    Electric hand held or stand mixer

                    knife to spread frosting

                    measuring cups

                    measuring spoons (the cap on most vanilla extract measures 1 teaspoon)

Ingredients: 3 cups confectioner's sugar

                    2/3 cup cocoa powder

                    1/3 cup coffee, almond milk, or milk

                    1 stick butter (vegan butter for vegan version) 

                    1 teaspoon vanilla

In a medium bowl use a hand mixer on low setting: Cream the butter then add all other ingredients. Mix until smooth and creamy. If the frosting is too thick and unable to spread easily, add a splash of milk until desired texture is achieved. Spread on cooled chocolate cake (recipe in this blog). Enjoy!
