Instructions

Cream butter and vanilla using a mixer. Add powdered sugar a half cup at a time. When smooth, mix in 2 tablespoons of milk, then add cocoa powder and mix until well blended. Add additional milk if needed.

Notes

Note: if you don’t have any milk or cream, you can use water instead. It won’t be quite as creamy but will still be delicious and the difference isn’t worth a trip to the store.
