Buttermilk chocolate frosting



Hi I’ve been needing to make a new chocolate frosting recipe so I started looking in my cooking books and found the better homes and gardens book, 1996 edition. 
They have a buttermilk chocolate frosting that is to die for! It’s a pretty easy recipe and the results are very tasty! Tomorrow I will be posting the recipe for the chocolate cake in the picture. Hope you guys love it!

Ingredients:
¼ cup of unsalted butter
3 Tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder
3 Tablespoons of buttermilk
2 ¼ cups of sifted confectioner’s sugar
½ teaspoon of vanilla extract

Procedure:
1   In a small saucepan combine the butter, buttermilk and cocoa powder.
2   Bring to a boil.
3   Meanwhile put the confectioner’s sugar in the mixing bowl.
       Remove the saucepan from heat as soon as it’s started boiling.
     Add the chocolate mix to the confectioner’s sugar while mixing with the whisk attachment. Your mixer should be set to stir.
6   Once the chocolate and the confectioner’s sugar are partially mixed add the vanilla extract. 
7 Beat until smooth.
