Ingredients:

6 Tbsp butter or margarine, softened

2 2/3 cups powdered sugar (sifted if clumpy)

1/2 cup Hershey's cocoa

1/3 cup milk

1 tsp Vanilla

Instructions

1. In a small mixing bowel, beat the butter until creamy.
2. Slowly add the powdered sugar and cocoa, alternate with milk.
3. Beat the mixture to a spreading consistency. (Add more milk if it is too thick.)
4. Blend in the vanilla.
5. Ice cake, cupcakes, or cookies.

I love this recipe because it is not ridiculously sweet. This is also the recipe I used to ice my cake for my last Wilton Class. I added some of the Meringue Powder (1 Tbsp) that I used in my class so that it would be stiffer and it worked really well.
