This is a very easy to make, but super yummy icing. I found it on the back of a powdered sugar bag I had in my pantry. Enjoy!
Ingredients:
2 ounces unsweetened chocolate, melted and cooled
3 3/4 cups confectioners' sugar
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine, softened
3 -4 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
Directions:
1. Place chocolate in heavy saucepan on very low heat or in the microwave until melted.
2. Set aside to cool.
3. Combine in a large bowl, with mixer at low speed, confectioners sugar, butter, milk and vanilla.
4. Beat at medium speed 1-2 minutes until creamy.
5. Add cooled chocolate and beat till combined. (If you want,you may add more milk now to get your desired spreading consistancy! I never need too.).
6. Makes enough to fill and frost 2-layer cake, or 13x9x2-inch sheet cake or 24 cupcakes, or 1 bundt cake.
