Chocolate Frosting

I know this looks like a recipe you would never need to make-why go through the trouble when you can just buy it in a tub at your local grocer? Well this recipe has an absolutely great taste, and is so easy to make! This will probably take you a lot faster, than running to your grocery. I just used this recipe for making cake balls, which I will post up soon, and it was great! This recipe does yield quite a bit, but you can double or triple it and save the rest for later-it stores beautifully in the fridge! Hope you enjoy!




INGREDIENTS:

2 1/2 cups powdered sugar
6 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder
6 tablespoons butter
5 tablespoons evaporated milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract


DIRECTIONS:

-sift together powdered sugar and cocoa, set aside
-cream butter until smooth
-gradually beat in sugar mixture alternately with milk
-blend in vanilla, and beat until fluffy
-you may adjust the consistency with more milk or sugar

preparation time: 10 minutes
yields: 1 cake covering

notes: if you would like to substitute evaporated milk, check out my baking replacements page.
