Dark Chocolate Frosting Recipe

  • 1 stick of margarine*, softened
  • 1 1/4 cup natural cocoa powder
  • 1 pound box of powdered sugar
  • 1/3 cup of water
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

In a large mixing bowl, beat the margarine (this can be very therapeutic) until creamy. Slowly add the cocoa powder, mix. Add the powdered sugar and water alternately to the margarine and cocoa, mix well. Stop the mixer and thoroughly scrape the bowl. Then add vanilla and beat until well mixed and easy to spread. If it's too stiff, add a small amount of water. Beat and repeat till it's ready to eat!

*For a reduced-fat frosting substitute 4 oz. or 8 tablespoons of a light buttery spread like Smart Balance®.
