Day 20 Recipe – Chocolate Frosting

Rae has brought the week to and end with a favorite in my house – CHOCOLATE – and even more so that it is a Frosting recipe.  It’s not too hard to make and will be all that more appreciated since you worked on it yourself. 

STOVETOP CHOCOLATE FROSTING

 

YOU WILL NEED

 

4 TBSP. butter

 

3 TBSP. milk

 

2 TBSP. baking cocoa

 

1 ¾ cup confectioner sugar (can add more sugar if it is to thin)

 

1 tsp. vanilla

 

 Bring butter and milk to a boil in medium sauce pan, SHOULD HAPPEN FAST, make sure butter is melted.  Immediately after butter is melted and the mix has boiled, remove from heat, add sugar and cocoa, mix with whisk until smooth.  Add vanilla.  Use this frosting to pour over a Bundt cake.  Frosting will harden a bit.  If you like add any sprinkles immediately after frosting cake.  The frosting does harden pretty fast.  Use on top of any of your favorite cake or brownie recipe.

 

Tip- if you want a very smooth frosting, you can sift cocoa and sugar before putting into sauce pan.

 

Enjoy!
