Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 cups flour
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 3/4 cup cocoa powder unsweetened
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2/3 cup neutral cooking oil generic cooking oil
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 2 large egg
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 cup water hot

  • 1 cup butter (softened)
  • 1/2 cup + 2 Tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 3 3/4 cups powdered sugar
  • 2-3 Tablespoons heavy cream or whole milk or half-n-half

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whip butter for 3 minutes. Add cocoa powder, powdered sugar, and milk or cream. Whip for 2-3 minutes. Add more cream if needed. Continue to whip until light and creamy.
  2. Spread frosting over cooled cake. Sprinkle with chocolate chips or sprinkles, if so desired. Cut into squares.
