Another great recipe! You are A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!
Can you freeze this?
You can absolutely freeze it! It’ll stay in the fridge for about 3 days, freezer for about 6 months. Just thaw, stir, and it’s perfect! This is the exact recipe I use and it’s DELICIOUS. Best chocolate frosting ever.
Freezing frosting? Brilliant! Thanks for the tip.
Is that 1 1/4 cup or just 1/4 cup of cocoa?
Its 1 and 1/4 cup
Do you think you should make this with soy milk and vegan butter? Anyone ever tried?
Now that u have your frosting finish add one tablespoon of creamy peanut butter and it make a great PB frosting .. My family loves it with a choc cake and PB Frosting …. Enjoy
Can you use just a
regular Hersheys chocolate bar?
when you saY BAKING COCOdo you mean cadberrys drinking coco?
Overall, was yummy recipe. However,I had to add more milk as the frosting was thick as mud. I will use the recipe again but will remember the need for more milk. The recipe made enout to cover 24 cupcakes with a lot left over. I used Hershey cocoa FYI. Thanks for sharing!
I grew up making this and I’m now 55. We always mixed the cocoa with 2/3′s of the powdered sugar so it would then incorporate without lumps. We added milk at room temp to make sure the cold milk didn’t set the butter. You can warm the milk a little in the microwave if necessary.
I don’t like my frosting with that much cocoa, but that’s the beauty of the recipe. You can make it as dark or light as you want by varying the amount of cocoa. You may need less milk or more sugar if leaving some of the cocoa out.
This is like the recipe that my mom used to make all the time! She would spread it between graham crackers and we thought we were getting a special treat.
Do you have a good cake recipe for the frosting yellow or marble cake if you have one
Yum….this stuff is so wonderful..and when you a combine it with a hot milk cake ..like unreal it’s so good! I wish I was able to eat sugar and glutens all day LONG and into the night YUMMMMMM! miss you guys so very much!
