Hershey’s Perfectly Chocolate Chocolate Frosting

When it comes to frosting, are you a chocolate or vanilla fan?  Whichever is your favorite, I can tell you I have got some good recipes.  Here's a sinfully rich chocolate frosting recipe, thanks to Hershey.


  • ½ cup (1 stick) butter
  • 2/3 cup HERSHEY'S Cocoa Powder
  • 3 cups confectioners' sugar
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
DIRECTIONS
  1. Melt butter. 
  2. Stir in cocoa. 
  3. Alternately add powdered sugar and milk, beating to a creamy, spreading consistency.  A small amount of additional milk may be added to make it more spreadable. 
  4. Stir in vanilla.
Makes "just enough" for 24 cupcakes, or a 2-layer cake.  Adjust the ingredients up a little if you are a big frosting fan (LIKE ME!  Let's just say that I doubled it for about 30 cupcakes and JUST had enough)!
