Chocolate Butter Icing

Perfect for all chocolate cake recipes!

Ingredients:

50g Butter/Margarine
375ml Icing Sugar
5ml Vanilla Essence
100ml Cocoa Powder
Milk as needed

Method:

Cream the butter cocoa and icing sugar to using an electric beater. Ensure there are no lumps. Add vanilla essence. Add milk a little at a time mixing until the mixture is smooth and soft. (Too much milk and the icing will become runny). Decorate as desired.

Handy Tip: After icing, place the cake in the fridge for 1 hour. The icing will set perfectly.
