This is the recipe I use and it is wonderful!!!! This makes a chocolate fudge type icing. You can use it for any decorations except roses (it dsnt hold up).
1/2 c. butter
2 tsp vanilla
4 cups powdered sugar (sifted)
1 c. cocoa powder (sifted)
1/2 c. milk.
Beat until smooth. Add more or less milk for the consistency you want.
