A friend just called to ask for this recipe and I thought you might enjoy it, too.

It's the easiest really good chocolate frosting I know.

Best with good quality cocoa -- at least 10% cocoa butter.

Glossy Chocolate Frosting

3 cups powdered sugar
1 cup cocoa
2 Tbl. butter, melted
½ cup oil (or as desired)
dash salt
1 ½ tsp vanilla
½ cup milk (or as desired)

Mix the above ingredients.
Heat and stir until smooth.
Do not boil.

If you want a thicker frosting,
reduce the oil and milk.
If you cut these liquids way down
and add nuts, you have soft fudge.
