Ingredients for Amanda Milk Chocolate Frosting

How to Make Amanda Milk Chocolate Frosting

  1. Melt 1/2 cup (1 stick) of unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over low heat.
  2. Whisk in 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder until completely smooth and dissolved.
  3. Add 3 cups powdered sugar, 1/2 cup milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  4. Cook and stir constantly over low heat until the mixture is smooth and well-blended. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
  5. Remove from heat. For a softer, easier-to-spread consistency, add milk 1 tablespoon at a time until desired consistency is reached.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
