Ingredients

Servings
  • 12 Tbsp unsalted butter
  • 16 ounces cream cheese
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 6 cups powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Add the softened butter, room temperature cream cheese, salt, and vanilla, to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix until smooth.
  2. Add the cocoa powder and powdered sugar, about 2 cups at a time, mixing in between additions. Take special care to thoroughly scrape down the sides of the bowl as you go.
  3. If your frosting is too stiff, add a bit of cream or milk to thin it down. You will want your frosting more on the thinner side for piping.
  4. Frosting can stay at room temperature for up to 2 hours, but should be refrigerated after that.

Notes

  • This recipe will frost a layer cake or 24 cupcakes.
