Fudgy Frosting
This is wonderful on the
Champion Chocolate Cake (see right) in our wheat-free section!
You’ll Need:
3 Cups natural powdered sugar*
½ Cup natural cocoa powder
1/8 tsp. sea salt (1/4 tsp. if using unsalted butter)
6 Tbls. butter, softened OR non-dairy margarine
1 tsp. natural vanilla extract
1/3 Cup boiling water (may not use all the water, just to consistency)
In a mixing bowl with an electric mixer, combine sugar, cocoa and salt. Mix in butter until a bit crumbly. Mix in vanilla. Add the boiling water a little at a time while mixing, scraping sides of bowl occasionally. Beat well until smooth.
*Note: If you are frosting a 2 layer cake, you may need to add more powdered sugar.
