Instructions:

1. Soften the butter: Start by ensuring your butter is softened. You can leave it out at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or you can soften it quickly in the microwave for 10-15 seconds. Be careful not to melt it completely.
2. Mix cocoa powder and powdered sugar: In a mixing bowl, combine the unsweetened cocoa powder and powdered sugar. Sift them together to remove any lumps and ensure a smooth frosting.
3. Add softened butter: Add the softened butter to the bowl with the cocoa powder and powdered sugar.
4. Mix: Using a hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and dry ingredients together on low speed until they start to combine. Then, increase the speed to medium and continue to beat for about 30 seconds to a minute until the mixture is well combined and resembles coarse crumbs.
5. Add milk and vanilla extract: With the mixer running on low speed, gradually add the milk or cream and vanilla extract to the mixture. Start with 1 tablespoon of milk and add more if needed to achieve your desired consistency. Continue mixing until the frosting is smooth and creamy.
6. Adjust consistency: If the frosting is too thick, add a little more milk, a teaspoon at a time, until you reach the desired consistency. If it’s too thin, add more powdered sugar, a tablespoon at a time, until it thickens up.
7. Frost and enjoy: Once your frosting is ready, it’s time to frost your favorite treats! Spread it generously over cupcakes, brownies, cakes, or whatever your heart desires. You can also lick the spoon – we won’t judge!
