Use Hershey's Cocoa
tablespoonful of cocoa powder
Add sifted cocoa powder and a pinch of salt. (The salt helps tone down the bitterness of the cocoa without adding more sugar)
INGREDIENTS
4 (1 ounce) squares unsweetened chocolate
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
4 cups confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons evaporated milk
DIRECTIONS
Have all ingredients at room temperature. Melt the chocolate in a double boiler or microwave oven.
In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until fluffy. Pour melted chocolate into cream cheese and mix on medium speed until well blended. Add vanilla and pinch of salt. Slowly mix in the confectioners sugar.
Scrape the sides of the bowl and increase mixer speed to medium-high. Slowly add evaporated milk until the frosting is spreading consistency
8 oz Cream Cheese -- softened
4 oz Butter -- softened
1 c Cocoa Powder
4 c Powdered Sugar
2 To 3 Tbsp.
Cream -- or milk
Cream the cheese and butter in your mixer. Sift or stir 1 cup of the sugar
with the cocoa powder and mix into the cheese and butter. Add some cream if
the stuff gets too dry. Continue adding sugar, and cream as needed, to a
spreadable consistency. Beat well to get all the lumps out.
