Chocolate Icing
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together the 1 cup granulated sugar and ⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder until no lumps of cocoa remain. Whisk in the ¼ cup milk and heat over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved. Bring to a boil and boil for one minute.
- Remove from heat and whisk in the ½ cup cubed unsalted butter and 1 teaspoon vanilla until the butter is melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Remove the dessert from the refrigerator and pour the hot chocolate icing over the slightly chilled dessert, spreading it out evenly. Return it to the refrigerator and chill overnight.
- Note: Once the icing on top of the dessert has cooled, cover the baking dish with a lid, foil, or plastic wrap. The following day, slice and serve. The key to getting clean slices is to use a sharp knife and wipe the knife clean after each cut.
