2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

Stir melted butter and cocoa powder in a bowl until evenly mixed. Add confectioners’ sugar and milk; beat until smooth and easily spread. Stir in vanilla extract.

Best Chocolate Frosting:

If you want to pipe your frosting do not melt your butter. Instead soften to room temperature. I used 1 cup butter instead of 1/2 cup. The chocolate flavor is very easily adaptable. If you like a lighter flavor use less cocoa, deeper use more. I actually didn’t measure my cocoa and added until I got the deep chocolate color and flavor I was going for. My hubby thought this was too sweet but most confectioner sugar frostings tend to be on the super sweet side. I liked this!
