Excellent frosting recipe! I gave it four stars because I used heavy cream instead of milk. I think that made a big difference in how creamy it is. As a side note, I think that you should use more cream/milk than you initially think you should. The more I added the better it got!

Fudge-y, creamy, delicious! I scaled it back to 12 servings and was able to frost 26 cupcakes and still had about a cup of frosting left over. I used the Hershey's Special Dark Cocoa and it tastes like a brownie, EXACTLY what I was looking for. It is definitely for those who want their frosting to taste chocolaty and not just be brown.

I love this frosting. It is very versatile. Use less liquid and it can make roses and stiff flowers, add more liquid and it is a creamy frosting. My advice is make sure the butter is room temperature and cream well, and then add the cocoa and cream them together well. Then, add the sugar and milk for a non-gritty texture. I followed others advice and reduced the cocoa. I also made the frosting the day before so the taste was smooth. It makes a generous amount and generously frosted and decorated a 12 inch double layer cake.

I halved this recipe, and used it on a 4 layer 9" round cake, and had exactly the amount I needed. Texture was great, not too sweet, just perfect!

Excellent! I quartered the recipe (8 servings) for generously frosting 12 cupcakes and still had plenty left over. I didn't add any extra milk, since spreading isn't much of an issue for cupcakes, and I loved the way it dolloped.

Absolutely divine! I halved the recipe and only used 1/4 c. milk for my 9x13 cake. The result was the most rich and creamy chocolate frosting I've ever had! An immediate favorite!

so so so good. Used to frost One Bowl Chocolate Cake III also on this site. I actually didn't have enough cocoa powder for what the recipe called for, but it still tasted superb - like a wendy's frosty!! yummy! I will make again with the full recommended cocoa powder amount, which I'm sure will taste just as good if not better!

I made this last night and it was delicious on cupcakes! The frosting was rich, chocolaty, and creamy. Just perfect. I cut all the ingredients in half and it was still WAY too much for 24 cupcakes. Next time I make 24 cupcakes I will make 1/4 of the amount. Thanks for this recipe!
