Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Rich Chocolate Frosting.
Step 1
Start by gathering all your frosting ingredients to set yourself up for success.
Step 2
In a spacious mixing bowl, combine the cocoa powder with warm melted butter, whisking them together until they blend beautifully.
Step 3
Let this mixture rest for about two minutes; this little pause allows it to cool down just enough for the next steps.
Step 4
Now, it’s time to sweeten things up! Add the confectioners' sugar, five tablespoons of milk, and a splash of vanilla extract to the bowl.
Step 5
Grab your electric mixer and beat everything together on medium speed for about two minutes, or until the frosting transforms into a smooth and creamy delight.
Step 6
If you find the frosting a bit too thick for your liking, don’t hesitate to add a little more milk, a tablespoon at a time, until you achieve that perfect, spreadable consistency.
Step 7
Enjoy the process and get ready to slather this delicious frosting on your favorite treats!.
