Ingredients:
3tbsp butter
1oz semi-sweet chocolate (can use unsweet too)
1c powder sugar
2tbsp milk
pinch of salt
2-3tbsp cocoa powder
In a saucepan melt 1oz semi-sweet chocolate and butter on low heat. I just waited till the chocolate was "squishy" and did not spread it around as I wanted most of the chocolate to go into my recipe.
Stir butter and chocolate into powdered sugar, cocoa powder, and salt until smooth. (I used my Kitchenaid to mix)
Add milk as needed to make a creamier consistency.
NOTE: any left over icing can be eaten as fudge. I put it in the fridge not knowing what was going to happen and looked at it after 24 hours and it was hard like fudge and tasted so good!
I left the cake out with this icing and it did not melt.
I made this blog upon request of my friends and others asking me for recipes. I do not use them most of the time and go off of taste. I will post here what I make. I may add in some "in process" photos too if I remember to snap them. I LOVE to bake. Especially with the help of my Kitchenaid mixer. I got it for $65 at Home Depot Memorial Day 2011. I have the 5Q Artisan mixer for reference for the recipes. At the end of 2013 I bought a Professional 600 mixer for $80 at Kohls (eeek!).
