Dark Chocolate Frosting
Ingredients:
2 sticks softened butter
2/3 cup extra dark cocoa powder
2 to 3 cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 to 4 tablespoons heavy cream or milk
Directions:
In a large bowl, use a mixer to beat together butter and vanilla. Add cocoa and gradually mix in powdered sugar starting with about 1 cup. Add 2 tablespoons cream or milk. Add more powdered sugar until frosting reaches desired consistency. You can also add a bit more milk or cream if needed. Makes enough to frost a 9 x 13 inch cake or about 24 cupcakes or cookies.
Notes:
This frosting is great on top of my Chocolate Strawberry Stuffed Cupcakes!
Hi, can you please tell me what 2sticks of butter is in grams.

Hi Julia. One stick of butter equals 8 tablespoons or 113.4 grams The recipe calls for 2 sticks butter. So just double that. Hope that helps. Thanks! -Amy
