How to Make Best Ever Chocolate Frosting
- In a medium bowl, cream together 1/2 cup (1 stick) softened unsalted butter, 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1/4 cup light corn syrup, and 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
- Gradually add 3 cups powdered sugar, alternating with 1/4 cup milk, beating on low speed until combined.
- Increase speed to medium-high and beat for 2-3 minutes, or until the frosting is light, fluffy, and reaches your desired spreading consistency. If the frosting is too thick, add more milk, 1 tablespoon at a time. If too thin, add more powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time.
- For a molasses variation, substitute 1/4 cup molasses for the honey.
