I've only used the Wilton buttercream icing to decorate with. I need a light brown and a dark brown for the puppy cake I'm making tomorrow. I'm thinking maybe I should use chocolate icing. Has anyone done this and how do I make chocolate buttercream?

I add cocoa to my regular buttercream recipe. For a darker chocolate, I use Dutch process, and for lighter chocolate, I use regular (Hershey's) cocoa.

You will need to add a bit of extra liquid, if you do this.
