How to Make Nana's Chocolate Frosting
- Combine 6 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1/2 cup (1 stick) of unsalted butter in a medium saucepan.
- Cook over low heat, stirring frequently, until the chocolate and butter are completely melted and smooth.
- Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly (about 5 minutes).
- In a separate bowl, sift 2 cups of powdered sugar to remove any lumps.
- Gradually add the sifted powdered sugar to the chocolate mixture, alternating with 1/4 cup of milk and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Begin and end with the powdered sugar.
- Beat with an electric mixer on high speed for 3-5 minutes, or until the frosting reaches a smooth, spreadable consistency.
