Creamy Chocolate Frosting

Prep Time:30 minutes Cook Time: 45 minutes Servings: 4 minutes

This milk chocolate frosting is smooth, creamy, and not too dark. I've been using this chocolate frosting recipe forever, and several friends now use it as their "favorite frosting!" I just wanted to share it with chocolate lovers everywhere! It will frost, but not fill, an 8- or 9-inch cake.

Ingredients:
  • 2 ¾ cups confectioners' sugar
  • 6 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • 5 tablespoons evaporated milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions:
  1. Gather all ingredients.
  2. Sift confectioners' sugar and cocoa powder into a medium bowl.
  3. Beat butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer until smooth and fluffy. Gradually beat in sugar mixture alternately with evaporated milk until well combined; blend in vanilla.
  4. Beat mixture on high speed until light and fluffy. Adjust consistency with more milk or sugar, if desired.
